I should add a little comment about "rd.auto", which is off by default.
So, the default behavior for the dracut initramfs is now, not to automatically assemble the devices it finds, unless "rd.auto=1" is given on the kernel command line.
The old behavior can be turned on by shipping a .conf file in /etc/dracut.conf.d with:
kernelcmdline+=" rd.auto=1 "
Which adds "rd.auto=1" to the default parameter.
