https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_beta2#initrd
"Mageia 2 will default to dracut as tool for creating initrds (initial
ramdisk, used during boot). We still provide mkinitrd for those that
need that, but will only support it when used with initscripts. Users
of systemd must use dracut."
So for initrd you can use either the mkinitrd or dracut. It depends on
the configuration. So, do you have a systemd ?
You are using dracut if you have a systemd. Here's how to set up the
console in dracut:

Check out your /etc/vconsole.conf.
