-NAME
-----
-mkinitrd - is a compat wrapper, which calls dracut to generate an initramfs
-
-SYNOPSIS
---------
-*mkinitrd* ['OPTION...'] [<initrd-image>] <kernel-version>
-
-DESCRIPTION
------------
-mkinitrd creates an initramfs image <initrd-image> for the kernel with
-version <kernel-version> by calling "dracut".
-
-[IMPORTANT]
-If a more fine grained control over the resulting image is needed,
-"dracut" should be called directly.
-
-OPTIONS
--------
-**--version**::
- print info about the version
-
-**-v, --verbose**::
- increase verbosity level
-
-**-f, --force**::
- overwrite existing initramfs file.
-
-**--image-version*::
- append the kernel version to the target image
- <initrd-image>-<kernel-version>.
-
-**--with=<module>**::
- add the kernel module <module> to the initramfs.
-
-**--preload=<module>**::
- preload the kernel module <module> in the initramfs before any other kernel
- modules are loaded. This can be used to ensure a certain device naming,
- which should in theory be avoided and the use of symbolic links in /dev is
- encouraged.
-
-**--nocompress**::
- do not compress the resulting image.
-
-**--help**::
- print a help message and exit.
