I don't know if this is really necessary. After all, it just a static

NetworkManager or initscripts perhaps cannot differentiate between
checking if it is already up immediately at boot-up or if it is run
again sometime later. It is really better for dracut to inform the OS
explicitly in a uniform manner similar to if dhcp were used.
Hmm, but in both cases NetworkManager should just preserve this state. So if no
dhcp was involved, reading the actual network state (interface and routes) and
preserving them, should be preferred.
Anyway, the syntax to use on the commandline is ip=... See
http://apps.sourceforge.net/trac/dracut/wiki/commandline for more
information.
As for a file format, why not ask the NetworkManager people what they'd
like to have?
Dan, what file format would you prefer?
