Description Andy 2012-02-27 07:26:13 UTC 
There should be a way to add ssh and networking in initramfs.
There are some manuals for Debian and Suse, but no way to got this running at Redhat based Systems.

This feature should be very interesting for e.g. remote unlocking a luks encrypted root partition.
Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2012-05-03 05:37:43 UTC 
Since RHEL 6.3 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.
