Yes, I usually have to rerun dracut a few times after tweaking its options, because I don't use the full-fat defaults. However, when I rolled my own initramfs, there were several more iterations after making changes. In my experience, once you have a sensible config, dracut just works - your comments about multiple LUKS partitions notwithstanding. -- Neil Bothwick Biology is the only science in which multiplication means the same thing as division.
