No, I mean verifying that the "/boot/initramfs-(kernelversion).img"
file got built with your driver installed.  It's created with dracut and
specified in the grub configuration to load any modular drivers needed
to bring up your root filesystem.

Alternately you can build the required disk drivers into the kernel
directly and not use an initramfs.  You only need the drivers necessary
to mount your root filesystem.
