If we install copy-root as a mount hook, it will be run after the root fs
is mounted and it will make hte proc directory, allowing root filesystem
creation to finish without error.
This also eliminates --skip-missing. Check scripts should now check
to ensure that any files and settings they will copy from the host
system actually exist when called without arguments.
The check scripts are also updated to not try to source dracut-functions
which(1) is a perfectly good way of checking if a command is on the path.
Work-in-progress to mount NFS root from udev, using the DHCP options and
allowing an override from the kernel command line. Supports NFSv4 w/locking
and NFSv2/v3 with nolock.
This is just an RFC patch, you'll note all the XXX markings where I've been
thinking about how to best do things. In addition, we really want to retry
DHCP and NFS mounting in a loop, in case the servers are down or overloaded
like when booting a full diskless cluster.
This changes the network config to run dhclient from within udev, and
allows multiple dhclients to run at once. It also sets the hostname and
adds a kernel command line option 'netdebug' to help debug network issues.
There are several snippits of shell code that are useful to multiple
scripts. Start by moving getarg() into the library.

This patch series applies on top of my previous patch series, and
is mainly concerned with coding style updates and better documentation.
Apparently [[ ]] && { ; } type flow control is scary, so translate
most instances of them into standard if-then and case constructs.
Move srcmods definition into the function, as $kernel isn't defined yet when
dracut-functions is sourced from dracut.
