Hi,

Thanks for making Mandos available to the community. It has precisely
the features I was looking for.

Except one... apparent support for Fedora. Is there a way to get Mandos
running with Fedora?

Thanks,

Erik.

Not at the moment, sorry.  Fedora, in their infinite wisdom, decided to
reimplement, incompatibly, the Debian initramfs-tools system; they are
calling it "Dracut".  Supporting Dracut does not seem, at a glance, to
be outside the realm of possibility, so we are slowly working on it.

Dracut also exists as a package for Debian, but when I tried it, it was
impossible to boot when using encrypted disks (Debian bug #671305).
