From 449f9a748229f78844861194187ee36a4cccd7f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jloeser Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2014 16:19:54 +0200 Subject: dracut.sh: check for logfile (--logfile option) and create it if necessary If a logfile is passed to dracut via --logfile option and doesn't exist, dracut doesn't create it and logs nothing. Instead, dracut should try to touch the file and print a warning if creating fails.
