Admins might need to add machine-specific initramfs content after install (a udev rule to unlock local storage is the classic case) and reach for editing /boot, which bootc overwrites on update. Document the supported path: build a machine-local derived image that regenerates the initramfs, so the image stays the source of truth. Also record why rpm-ostree's client-side initramfs is incompatible with bootc upgrade, and the UKI-addon direction. Assisted-by: AI Signed-off-by: Joseph Marrero Corchado <[email protected]>

Would be good to put that stuff somewhere, maybe as part of revitalizing https://gitlab.com/fedora/bootc/tests/bootc-workflow-test |
