I can see a lot of processes from root on my system, that are running without having $HOME set. HOME is normally set by a login process. Since the fai script is started by dracut, it seems that the HOME is never set inside dracut. My impression is, that this is a default dehaviour. You can define variables in class/*.var files. This should also work for HOME. -- regards Thomas
