resolv.conf being overwritten

I believe this is coming from /boot/initrd

As root:

cd /root
cp /boot/initrd ./initrd.gz
gzip -d initrd.gz
mkdir initDisk
cd initDisk
cpio -i <…/initrd

vim etc/resolv.conf # make your changes here

find . | cpio --create --format=‘newc’ >…/newInitrd
cd …/
gzip newInitrd

mv /boot/initrd /boot/initrd_original
cp newInitrd.gz /boot/initrd
