Ah, what I find is # cat /etc/dracut.conf.d/05-convertfs.conf add_dracutmodules+="convertfs" add_dracutmodules+="convertfs" add_dracutmodules+="convertfs" add_dracutmodules+=" convertfs " add_dracutmodules+=" convertfs " so whatever the fix from 2 years ago was (probably appending to the conf file), it just left the old entries alone.
