Dracut | GRUB | Reporting No <initramfs file> specified and the default image cannot be accessed!

When using the steps here to switch to dracut with Grub

https://discovery.endeavouros.com/installation/dracut/2022/12/

I am getting the following error:

sudo lsinitrd -m  

No <initramfs file> specified and the default image '/boot/initramfs-6.1.11-zen1-1-zen.img' cannot be accessed!

Usage: lsinitrd [options] [<initramfs file> [<filename> [<filename> [...] ]]]
Usage: lsinitrd [options] -k <kernel version>

-h, --help                  print a help message and exit.
-s, --size                  sort the contents of the initramfs by size.
-m, --mod                   list modules.
-f, --file <filename>       print the contents of <filename>.
--unpack                    unpack the initramfs, instead of displaying the contents.
                            If optional filenames are given, will only unpack specified files,
                            else the whole image will be unpacked. Won't unpack anything from early cpio part.
--unpackearly               unpack the early microcode part of the initramfs.
                            Same as --unpack, but only unpack files from early cpio part.
-v, --verbose               unpack verbosely.
-k, --kver <kernel version> inspect the initramfs of <kernel version>.

When I check the boot directory I can see the images generated do not have the expected name of “‘/boot/initramfs-6.1.11-zen1-1-zen.img’”:

These are my configuration files in “/etc/dracut.conf.d”:

I did not reboot the setup after I followed the Discovery instructions. I’m wondering what I am missing?

Just in case it might help, I have included :slight_smile:

Try

lsinitrd -m /boot/initramfs-linux-zen.img

You can’t run lsinitrd without arguments unless you are using systemd-boot. It doesn’t know where to find the initrd. Add the path to the initrd as an argument and it should work.

Thanks Dalto and @philmo for the feedback. It now makes sense that since I use Grub this is why the multiple examples I was reading in various documentation did not have me explicitly pass the path and file name if the IMG file. Problem resolved.

Example for persons not using System boot:

lsinitrd -m /boot/initramfs-linux-lts.img
