While ZFS is indeed a ba= d example due to open questions about module licensing and redistribution, = it isn't the only out-of-tree module currently packaged in Guix which could= be used with the extra initrd support (not counting future packages or ext= ernal channels). Within the guix repo, the packages using the `linux-module= -build-system` aside from zfs are: - acpi-call-linux-module - bbswitch-module - ddcci-driver-linux - rtl8812au-aircrack-ng-linux-module - rtl8821ce-linux-module - ttyebus-linux-module - v4l2loopback-linux-module - vhba-module - wiregard-linux-compat Of those nine, at least four look to be for specific hardware, and I can co= me up with theoretical use cases for why someone might want those or wirega= rd-linux-compat (though the cases are definitely contrived straw-men that m= ay or may not be implementable in practice or actually useful in an initrd = context, such as network booting with an older kernel and the root filesyst= em can only be accessed over a wireguard connection).
