The following considerations and observations have been made: - dracut is more configurable - dracut is the only initramfs generator that will work with the "frzr kernel" utility - a dracut-generated initramfs is 38MB, while mkinitcpio is about 120MB - the included dracut configuration avoids building the fallback, thus sparing build time

The current frzr is tightly coupled to device-quirks and mkinitcpio: in fact frzr lists mkinitcpio among its dependencies. This PR is to be merged as part as the frzr refactor. |
