Name : dracut
Product : Fedora 39
Version : 059
Release : 15.fc39
URL : https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/wiki/
Summary : Initramfs generator using udev
Description :
dracut contains tools to create bootable initramfses for the Linux
kernel. Unlike other implementations, dracut hard-codes as little
as possible into the initramfs. dracut contains various modules which
are driven by the event-based udev. Having root on MD, DM, LVM2, LUKS
is supported as well as NFS, iSCSI, NBD, FCoE with the dracut-network
package.

Update Information:
This update attempts to address an issue whereby failure of the built-in media
check on Fedora live and installer images is sometimes not visible because the
screen blanks immediately after the failure. It introduces a 12-hour sleep
before the system is halted, when the media check fails. The update includes
both anaconda and dracut builds because the media check for live images is
implemented in dracut, but the media check for installer images is implemented
in anaconda.
