The old root is then mounted on /oldroot. /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/99shutdown/shutdown.sh is the shutdown executable. +* shutdown will try to umount every /oldroot mount and calls the various shutdown hooks from the dracut modules + +This ensures, that all devices are disassembled and unmounted cleanly. + +To debug the shutdown process, you can get a shell in the shutdown procedure +by injecting "rd.break=pre-shutdown rd.shell" or "rd.break=shutdown rd.shell". +---- +# mkdir -p /run/initramfs/etc/cmdline.d +# echo "rd.break=pre-shutdown rd.shell" > /run/initramfs/etc/cmdline.d/debug.conf +# touch /run/initramfs/.need_shutdown +---- + + +AUTHORS +------- +Harald Hoyer + +SEE ALSO +-------- +*dracut*(8)
