Description-en: copy initramfs modules into root filesystem for later use
When booting with an external-to-root kernel and initramfs, you need
to ensure that /lib/modules contains any necessary modules not already
loaded.
.
This package arranges for the modules in the initramfs to be placed
into /lib/modules after the switchroot is done.
