Could we stop putting random stuff in random dirs because 'it will |
| 19 |
work'? /etc is _SYSCONFDIR_. I don't see how PCI IDs are config at all. |

As I see it, the simplest solution would be to lay out the minimal |
| 27 |
initramfs contents to rootfs and make it mount /usr and stuff before |
| 28 |
starting actual rc. This should cut all the complaints and possibly let |
| 29 |
us move some stuff back to /usr where it belongs. |
