When testing on pmOS with qemu/x86_64, this results in some nice reduction in size of the initramfs-extra (gzip'd, default compression): Before: /mkinitfs # ls -la /boot/initramfs-extra -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3544429 Mar 19 23:06 /boot/initramfs-extra After: /mkinitfs # ls -la /boot/initramfs-extra -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2234020 Mar 19 23:08 /boot/initramfs-extra Fixes #23
