Actually, that's not necessarily true: If we don't begin appraisal until after the initrd phase, then the initrd can load TPM modules before IMA starts. This would involve a bit of code rejigging to not require a TPM until IMA wants to write its first measurement, but it looks doable and would get us out of having to second guess TPM selections. James
