Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.
               
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Would be nice, if you could test it.

Looks good to me.

Comment 13 Jan Stodola 2013-10-18 09:24:01 UTC
man page for mkinitrd is present in dracut-004-335.el6, compose RHEL6.5-20131016.0.

Moving to VERIFIED.
