[opensuse] Is there a difference between the result and action of dracut -f and mkinitrd?
As of title: is the result for both commands (in leap) the same or is there a difference? Is there a difference in action? What command should be preferred? Thank you. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
I would recommend mkinitrd. It calls dracut with some extra options. I
had issues when using pure dracut.

mkinitrd calls dracut under the covers, but '-f' means something different - 'force' for dracut and 'feature' to mkinitrd.
What command should be preferred?
Probably dracut, I think I've seen situations where the mkinitrd wrapper doesn't quite do what you expect. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.2°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
