[Pkg-zfsonlinux-devel] Bug#848157: zfs-initramfs: The boot=zfs kernel parameter is still neccessary to boot an zfs root system.

[Achim Gottinger]

Package: zfs-initramfs
Version: 0.6.5.8-1~bpo8+1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The current zfs-initram package needs an additional config file (already
present in ubuntu's zfs-initramfs) to get rid of the boot=zfs kernel parameter.

I attached the required config file (/usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d/zfs).
