`dracut-initramfs-restore.sh` fails on ostree-based systems

Open miabbott opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug

The dracut-initramfs-restore.sh script fails during dracut-shutdown.service on ostree-based systems because it incorrectly looks for the initramfs in the wrong location.

Distribution used

I've observed this on RHEL for Edge 9.4 and Fedora Silverblue 40

Dracut version

dracut-057-53.git20240104.el9.x86_64 dracut-101-1.fc40.x86_64

Init system

systemd

To Reproduce

  1. Install an ostree-based distribution
  2. Reboot
  3. Observe failures in journal

Expected behavior

The dracut-initramfs-restore.sh script should correctly find the initramfs image and unpack it to /run

Additional context

The script appears to be incorrectly identifying the initrd at /boot/efi/$MACHINE_ID/$KERNEL_VERSION/initrd, but that doesn't exist on ostree systems. However, the error does not appear to be fatal to the overall system shutdown.

13 directories, 19 files

I think the script could be changed to look for /run/ostree-booted and then unpack the initramfs.img from /usr/lib/modules/${KERNEL_VERSION}/initramfs.img
