How do we tell make install that we need dracut to this automagically? Can we script it? I am sure that many users just # yum install mkintrd -y > and move on, but if we want to use Fedora's way(not rpm build but regular mortal way) we are at a loss :(, also there is not good enough documentation on the nouveau issues(if there is no one is sharing it :( ) > > I can apply patches easily > patch -p1 < ????, > but dracut in place of mkinitrd, in make install is not that easy :( > > If there's a way to do it, I am sure more than one person would be happy to know :) > Building a vanilla kernel on Fedora 12 or 13 doesn't need mkinitrd. Make install, as root, works fine with dracut and builds the initrd with the kernel nouveau driver, that you've compiled as a module. The _only_ tool you need to build initrds is dracut. X works great on 12/13 with the driver from vanilla kernel, even the 2.6.34 on Fedora 13.
