I consider dracut modules are somewhat more flexible than mkinitcpio, every specific configutation which I did in mkinitcpio was doable with dracut. If someone asks my opinion, I would recommend dracut.

After looking up the original anouncement in mailing list and wiki /
this thread I setup dracut in parallel with mkinitcpio (for now)
generating images with '-dracut' suffix though a pacman hook. It seems
to be working ok with minimal configuration as others suggested.
Anyone found a way to re-generate the images using dracut for all
installed kernels, similar to
mkinitcpio -P
I assume no since the mkinitcpio is getting this information from
presets located in /etc/mkinitcpio.d but maybe something automagically
discovered since dracut is all about discovery.
