Fedora 26 does not persist through reboot #112

Unsure if this is related to #93, but /boot/<machine-id> was removed before installing. dattobd, etc/datto/dla, and usr/sbin/datto_reload are in initramfs.

The module is loaded during boot, but the reload scripts are not run.

$root is not set, causing dattobd.sh to exit after loading the module

that's pretty bad, one of the few guarantees in life was that $root was being set. It must have changed to something else, it can't not be made available...

I see usage of [ -z "$root" ] && root=$(getarg root=) in some other dracut scripts. This appears to work, ~but I'm not able to find any information on it or $root~. getarg is from 99base/dracut-lib.sh, which is already sourced when our script runs.
