Bug Description

There needs to be a way to set the multi-drivers-switch=cvl-2.54 kernel cmdline parameter for the subcloud's miniboot ISO.

During initial boot of the subcloud miniboot ISO we boot with rdinit=/install in order to active the install. We also supply boot parameter multi-drivers-switch=cl-2.54, required for this particular hardware.

Since the /install doesn't support multi-drivers-switch, we cannot establish the network in order to perform ostree repo pull request.

A solution would be to include support for the network_modules() function from /init in the /install script.

Workaround:

The miniboot kickstart can be altered to unload the original kernel module and load the legacy module before the networking is configured.
