I'm an arch tester and I'd be happy to test dracut.

It would be helpful if you could create a little write-up on 'how to
switch' from mkinitcpio to dracut.

Its straightforward for me to add a boot stanza to refind to use the
dracut img.

And I assume modules now in HOOKS would move to
/etc/dracut.conf.d/hooks.conf
or similar.

All being well, the kernel package will need to be modified to update

/usr/share/libalpm/hooks/60-linux.hook

to now call dracut.

Thanks for working on this.
