++MKINITRD(8)
++===========
++:doctype: manpage
++:man source: dracut
++:man manual: dracut
++
++NAME
++----
++mkinitrd-suse - is a compat wrapper, which calls dracut to generate an initramfs
++
++SYNOPSIS
++--------
++*mkinitrd* ['OPTION...']
++
++DESCRIPTION
++-----------
++*mkinitrd* creates an initramfs image <initrd-image> for the kernel with
++version <kernel-version> by calling *dracut*.
++
++[IMPORTANT]
++This version of mkinitrd is provided for compability with older
++versions of mkinitrd. If a more fine grained control over the
++resulting image is needed, *dracut* should be called directly.
++
++OPTIONS
++-------
++**-R, --version**::
++ print info about the version
++
++**-k** _<kernel_list>_::
++ List of kernel images for which initrd files are created (relative
++ to _boot_dir_), defaults to _vmlinux_ on ppc/ppc64, _image_ on s390/s390x
++ and _vmlinuz_ for everything else.
++
++**-i** _<initrd_list>_::
++ List of file names (relative to _boot_dir_) for the initrd; positions
++ have to match the _kernel_list_. Defaults to _initrd_.
++
++**-m** _<module_list>_::
++ Modules to include in initrd, defaults to _INITRD_MODULES_ variable
++ in */etc/sysconfig/kernel*.
++
++**-f** _<feature_list>_::
++ Features to be enabled for the initrd. In general mkinitrd
++ configures the initrd for the root device it is started from. With
++ this option additional feature can be enabled.
++
++**-b** _<bootdir>_::
++ Boot directory, defaults to */boot*, where the initrd is created.
++
++**-d** _<root_device>_::
++ Root device, defaults to the device from which the root_dir is
++ mounted; overwrites the rootdev enviroment variable if set
++
++**-s** _<size>_::
++ Add splash animation and bootscreen to initrd.
++
++**-D** _<interface>::
++ Run dhcp on the specified interface (for example "eth0").
++
++**-I** _<interface>::
++ Configure the specified interface statically.
++
++**-a** _<acpi_dsdt>::
++ Attach compiled ACPI DSDT (Differentiated System Description Table)
++ to initrd. This replaces the DSDT of the BIOS. Defaults to the
++ _ACPI_DSDT_ variable in */etc/sysconfig/kernel*.
++
++**-M** _<map>::
++ System.map file to use.
++
++**-B**::
++ Don’t run the *update-bootloader(8)* script after the initrd(s) have
++ been created. This is useful if you call mkinitrd(8) for anything
++ else than the running system.
++
++**-A**::
++ Create a so called "monster initrd" which includes all available
++ features and modules.
++
++**-v, --verbose**::
++ increase verbosity level
++
++**-L**::
++ Disable logging to _/var/log/YaST2/mkinitrd.log_. This is useful for
++ testing if you don’t want to clutter the system log.
++
++**--force**::
++ overwrite existing initramfs file.
++
++**--help**::
++ print a help message and exit.
++
++AVAILABILITY
++------------
++The mkinitrd command is part of the dracut package and is available from
++link:$$https://dracut.wiki.kernel.org$$[https://dracut.wiki.kernel.org]
