mkinitrd/F-8/mkinitrd-forceide.patch
mkinitrd/F-8/mkinitrd-dmdeps.patch

These patches live in cvspkgs against mkinitrd-6.0.19 but are not in
your upstream git repo. Are they unsuitable for upstream or something?


2)
# If we have ide devices and module ide, do the right thing
ide=/proc/ide/ide*
if [ -n "$forceide" -o -n "$ide" -a "x$PROBE" == "xyes" ]; then
findmodule -ide-disk
fi

Do we need this part of mkinitrd anymore? There is no ide-disk module.

Running ldconfig

mkinitrd -v of both bash-branch and upstream copies these irrelevant
ld.so.conf.d files into the initrd. These particular files don't seem
to be causing harm, but should we avoid copying this stuff just in case
some arbitrary file might cause unexpected behavior?

No, we should be doing exactly what we're doing. We can't know if
they're relevant or not; all we can be sure of is that the running
system works when they're there.
