Well, I'm not, that's what I'm trying to do. But I'd like to do it the |
20 |
way I've done it for years rather using some new facility. |

Can genkernel do it? I built my kernel just now according to |
23 |
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel/Upgrade, as I always have. |

Maybe I should start over and use genkernel? |

Okay, I see genkernel has a initramfs action. I'll try that. It |
28 |
probably uses cargo under the hood. SMH. Building an initramfs isn't |
29 |
all that difficult once you know what's got to go into it. Are we |
30 |
gratuitously adding dependencies? We should strive to keep things simple. |
