The dracut package contains tools to create bootable initramfses for the Linux kernel. Historically, neither the Container/Dockerfile nor the Kickstart equivalents of the fedora-toolbox OCI images contained dracut. The KIWI description of the image was including dracut because it's listed as a Requires(pre) of the grub2-tools package [1]. Unless someone comes forward and says that they are using Toolbx to hack on the boot stack, it's better to retain the status quo for the sake of a smaller image. Since an RPM's %pre scriptlet is run before a package is installed [2], it should be safe to remove dracut after the grub2-tools package has been installed.

This project is used to manage the Fedora KIWI image descriptions used in composing Fedora release images.
The rawhide
branch is used for Fedora Rawhide images and each release branch is used by that release.
All changes should be made via the PR workflow.
Image variants
Please look at VARIANTS
for details on the available
configurations that can be built.
