Hi Mitsutaka, The problem we currently have with the way we generate initrd for yum based platforms is that we don't exit initrd. We just exec into the root file system. As you pointed out we do not have initramfs tools on yum platforms. We cannot include initramfs tools in MIC. We would have to have that in the project chroot to be able to create images. Option (1) does not seem to be feasible. If we do decide to have initramfs, we would have to have the package in moblin2 repository.
