Yes, I usually have to rerun dracut a few times after tweaking its |
| 10 |
options, because I don't use the full-fat defaults. However, when I |
| 11 |
rolled my own initramfs, there were several more iterations after making |
| 12 |
changes. In my experience, once you have a sensible config, dracut just |
| 13 |
works - your comments about multiple LUKS partitions notwithstanding. |

Biology is the only science in which multiplication means the same thing |
