+     The GRUB specific option <option>boot.loader.grub.extraInitrd</option>
+     has been replaced with the generic option
+     <option>boot.initrd.secrets</option>. This option creates a secondary
+     initrd from the specified files, rather than using a manually created
+     initrd file.
+
+     Due to an existing bug with <option>boot.loader.grub.extraInitrd</option>,
+     it is not possible to directly boot an older generation that used that
+     option. It is still possible to rollback to that generation if the required
+     initrd file has not been deleted.
