dracut-force-add-loaded-modules

This is a Dracut module that will add all loaded kernel modules to the initramfs. It doesn't do any filtering or other silly things, just requires that the host building the initramfs has present and correct /proc/modules.

How to use

These instructions work for Dracut on Arch, but should work on any distro. You might have to slightly adjust the paths below (look up Dracut package contents on your distro to figure out the correct paths).

  • Clone this Git repo into /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/99loaded-modules (this dir should contain module-setup.sh).
  • Run sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/99loaded-modules/module-setup.sh
  • In /etc/dracut.conf (or in a file under /etc/dracut.conf.d), add add_dracutmodules+=loaded-modules.
  • Optionally, drop loaded-modules.conf from this repo into /etc/dracut.conf.d if you'd like.
  • Regenerate the initramfs and see if the amount of included modules increased (lsinitrd can help, try something like lsinitrd /boot/initramfs-test.img | grep usr/lib/modules | wc -l on images with and without this module).
