Public bug reported: In Ubuntu, initramfs-tools builds portable initrds by default. We want that user can replace hardware (e.g. the graphics card, keyboard) and still be able to boot. Taking a disk from one machine, plug it into a different machine, and boot should work out of the box.
We currently use `--hostonly --hostonly-mode=sloppy` (see bug #2084809). Upstream bug: https://github.com/dracut-ng/dracut-ng/issues/748 Proposed solution: * Rename `hostonly_cmdline` to `include_cmdline`. Deprecate the former name. * Introduce `mode="{generic|hostonly|strict}"` where generic matches `hostonly=no`, hostonly matches `hostonly=yes hostonly_mode=sloppy`, strict matches `hostonly=yes hostonly_mode=strict` * Add `include_system_configs={yes|no}` to decouple this behavior the mode. ** Affects: dracut Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: dracut (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Triaged ** Bug watch added: github.com/dracut-ng/dracut-ng/issues #748 https://github.com/dracut-ng/dracut-ng/issues/748 ** Also affects: dracut via https://github.com/dracut-ng/dracut-ng/issues/748 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: dracut (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: dracut (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2098659 Title: Please support hostonly mode with full portability To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dracut/+bug/2098659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
