Brandnew 15.3 just now rebooting on backend#1.
Well, not quite. It looks like dracut in 15.3 is also suffering from bug#1206781. I didn't wait for the time-out, nor did I check the serial console, but there is no sysctl in the initrd. Fortunately it is easy to add with dracut. Rebuilding the initrd with xz compression also shaves off almost 4Mb.
Are you using lilo on it? :-D
Most amusing :-) No, its booting over PXE. I was surprised to see xz compression saving about 20%, but of course it's hardly critical.
It is critical for those of us that have an old and separate /boot partition with a size that was ample ten years ago :-D
In principle, but in practice that disk will be long dead :-) Still, its a decent saving.
Being able to configure configure dracut with /etc/dracut/conf.d/ is quite nice.
I never had that need.
I don't imagine many people have, but if you want to change the compression method to save those 4Mb, it'll do just that. My main need is to work around boo#1206781. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.9°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes (2016 - present) We're hiring - https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Heroes
