Bug#533894: initramfs-tools: add support for virtio modules for netbooting



Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.93.3
Severity: wishlist


The virtio_pci module is in the 'base' class already (which is
relevant for MODULES=netboot together with class 'net').

Though not all available and necessary virtio drivers are used -
therefore it's not possible to for example boot via PXE in a KVM
virtualiziation environment.

It would be nice to have the full list of virtio drivers
(virtio_blk, virtio_net, virtio_pci and virtio_balloon) included
in MODULES=most and MODULES=netboot.

Credits regarding this issue go to Daniel Weuthen.

regards,
