They have an entry in the FAQ about initramfs: https://kisslinux.org/faq#5.2 https://kisslinux.org/faq#5.2 > KISS technically supports booting via an initramfs, it just doesn't require or provide one. As a user you have the means to set this up yourself for your system. > Full disk encryption is also possible without the use of an initramfs in modern kernels (see dm-mod.create). > The initramfs concept is an ugly, complicated and largely optional mess. Thank god it isn't a requirement.
