[Bug 858441] New: mkinitrd man page incomplete/inadequate
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=858441 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=858441#c0 Summary: mkinitrd man page incomplete/inadequate Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 13.1 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Documentation AssignedTo: ke@suse.com ReportedBy: mrmazda@earthlink.net QAContact: ke@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Every time I want to rebuild one initrd only, I go through the same problem, which is the man page does not say what "kernel list" for -k means, nor does it say what "initrd list" for -i means. Googling an answer always seems to take an inordinate amount of time, as does locating the last mailing list thread I saved where this was answered. For an ordinary mortal to understand the text of the man page requires examples missing from the man page. Are they the filenames in /boot/? Are they the filenames in /lib/modules/? Are they the rpm package names? Are they none of the above (if so, what)? Please include examples of syntax for common usages in the man page for mkinitrd (and do the same for dracut, which for 13.2 has the same problem and could be expediently solved as one process combining similar change for both man pages). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
