This is fine unless you never plan to actually mount a real rootfs as you&amp;#x27;ve made your initramfs have everything a normal rootfs would have and you want devtmpfs to Just Work.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Build Initramfs Rootless</title><url>https://blog.izissise.net/posts/initramfs/</url></story>
