dracut modules to build a dracut initramfs with network support
This package requires everything which is needed to build a generic all purpose initramfs with network support with dracut.
The elfutils-libs package contains libraries which implement DWARF, ELF, and machine-specific ELF handling and process introspection. These libraries are used by the programs in the elfutils package. The elfutils-devel package enables building other programs using these libraries.
A set of basic GNU tools commonly used in shell scripts
These are the GNU core utilities. This package is the combination of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.
Rule-based device node and kernel event manager
This package contains systemd-udev and the rules and hardware database needed to manage device nodes. This package is necessary on physical machines and in virtual machines, but not in containers.
systemd is a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts the rest of the system.
dracut module to build an initramfs with most files in a squashfs image
This package provides a dracut module to build an initramfs, but store most files in a squashfs image, result in a smaller initramfs size and reduce runtime memory usage.
The GNU C Library project provides the core libraries for the GNU system and GNU/Linux systems, as well as many other systems that use Linux as the kernel. These libraries provide critical APIs including ISO C11, POSIX.1-2008, BSD, OS-specific APIs and more. These APIs include such foundational facilities as open, read, write, malloc, printf, getaddrinfo, dlopen, pthread_create, crypt, login, exit and more.
dracut contains tools to create bootable initramfses for the Linux kernel. Unlike previous 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.
The elfutils-libelf package provides a DSO which allows reading and writing ELF files on a high level. Third party programs depend on this package to read internals of ELF files. The programs of the elfutils package use it also to generate new ELF files.
kexec-tools provides /sbin/kexec binary that facilitates a new kernel to boot using the kernel's kexec feature either on a normal or a panic reboot. This package contains the /sbin/kexec binary and ancillary utilities that together form the userspace component of the kernel's kexec feature.
Libraries for decoding files compressed with LZMA or XZ utils.
non-interactive command-line text editor
Sed is a non-interactive command-line text editor. A stream editor is used to per-form basic text transformations on an input stream (a file or input from a pipeline).
