Attachments: Patch against genkernel git to add support for rootflags

Description Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-12-29 14:33:19 UTC
When passing on rootflags for the kernel (initramfs) to consider, using rootflags=... does not work with genkernel-3.4.5. Instead, I need to pass it as real_rootflags=

Since real_root is deprecated, we should deprecate real_rootflags as well and just use rootflags.

Reproducible: Always

Patch against genkernel git to add support for rootflags

If you have the chance, please test this before I apply it to master.

I will try persuade one of the genkernel portage maintainers into doing a release soon-ish, but really want this applied if possible.

This patch was included in genkernel 3.4.46.
