[SOLVED] mkinitcpio : HOOKS (a,b,c) for default - (x,y,z) for fallback
I have this idea to use for mkinitcpio configuration,
in default presets, an optimized one for my system:
HOOKS=(systemd autodetect microcode modconf keyboard sd-vconsole block filesystems fsck)and in fallback preset a more robust/common one (e.g. current arch default):
HOOKS=(base udev autodetect microcode modconf kms keyboard keymap consolefont block filesystems fsck)I know the autodetect is already stripped in fallback,
but what is the best way to have both HOOKS specified like my idea ?

Re: [SOLVED] mkinitcpio : HOOKS (a,b,c) for default - (x,y,z) for fallback
you can specify different config files in the preset (default_config, fallback_config)

Re: [SOLVED] mkinitcpio : HOOKS (a,b,c) for default - (x,y,z) for fallback
Ah, you mean something like this:
# /etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux-lts.preset
PRESETS=('default' 'fallback')
default_config="/etc/mkinitcpio-myoptimized.conf"
fallback_config="/etc/mkinitcpio.conf"While fallback could point to the current, not-modified, arch default,
and default to my optimized one ?
Edit: Thanks, it works:
# /etc/mkinitcpio-custom.conf
HOOKS=( systemd autodetect microcode modconf keyboard sd-vconsole block filesystems fsck)# /etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux-lts.preset
...
