The tool dracut is used to create initramfs images for the Linux Kernel. Its default name is: initramfs-2.6.36-gentoo-r1.img However, the script /etc/grub.d/10_linux has the following lines to match initramfs: initrd= for i in "initrd.img-${version}" "initrd-${version}.img" \ "initrd-${version}" "initrd.img-${alt_version}" \ "initramfs-genkernel-${version}" "initramfs-genkernel-${alt_version}" \ "initrd-${alt_version}.img" "initrd-${alt_version}"; do So it doesn't find it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run dracut with your kernel version 2. run grub-mkconfig and see that it doesn't include the initrd in the block for each kernel entry Expected Results: I expect grub-mkconfig to realize that the file generated by dracut and put in the /boot entry matches the krenel image. It should just be a minor change to add its filename pattern to that list.
