Okay. Found it: dracut in installed and generates the initrd. Some time later /dev is mounted: Exec: ['mount', '--bind', '/dev', '/tmp/tmp8sopd0qw/dev'] Exec: ['mount', '--bind', '/sys', '/tmp/tmp8sopd0qw/sys'] Exec: ['mount', '--bind', '/proc', '/tmp/tmp8sopd0qw/proc'] Then your modscript.sh is executed: Processing triggers for dracut (110-9) ... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.19.11+deb14-amd64 This time hostonly mode is not disabled, because /dev is mounted. -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
