Well the initrd used on intel platforms only loads a specific set of
modules ("ahci" "usb-storage" ...), see linux-modules in
linux-initrd.scm.

I'd like to reuse the same code on arm platform, so I think the better
option is for kernel configurations to converge instead of defining
specific initrd for specific platforms.

I plan on adding a gnu/system/installers/ or a gnu/system/boards/
directory with one file per specific platform. Then each board will have
a specific bootloader: grub, u-boot-... but, if possible, the same
kernel : linux-libre and the same initrd : base-initrd (with some
#:extra-modules if needed).

WDYT ?
