Description Witaut Bajaryn 2015-09-17 13:27:28 UTC 
Neither the manpage, --help output, nor the Gentoo Wiki page has any information about the /etc/initramfs.mounts config file and the possibility to mount additional filesystems in the initramfs.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Witaut Bajaryn 2015-09-17 13:28:40 UTC 
P.S. I'm not sure if this should have been reported in Documentation or here. It looks like the Documentation section is for Web documentation only.
