I still think the main point is that you don't actually dabble with building initrds yourself, you are happy to follow instructions to do so, when needed. In the future, no one is going to direct you to run mkinitrd, so what is the point of having an alias.
well, the instructions you will google will lack 1 or 2 years...
Some of them will, no doubt. Others might just say "rebuild your initrd". If Carlos is at that point - googling, having to apply his own imagination, read a man page - he'll work it out.
Huh, no.
I am at the point of telling people "you need to do mkinitrd". I have done so hundreds of times.
Well, despite your advanced age, may I humbly suggest you move with the times and stop telling people to use deprecated tools that will stop working in not very long. Also, if you feel comfortable dishing out instructions, shouldn't you be at least _somewhat_ familiar with your tools? Do you still tell people to use "insserv" too ? Maybe also "rsh" ? ifconfig ? iptables? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (14.9°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes (2016 - present) We're hiring - https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Heroes
