this is wrong

$ man dracut

"-a" means

       -a, --add <list of dracut modules>
           add a space-separated list of dracut modules to the default set of
modules. This parameter
           can be specified multiple times.

               Note
               If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in
quotes. For example:

                   # dracut --add "module1 module2"  ...

"-I" means

       -I, --install <file list>
           install the space separated list of files into the initramfs.

               Note
               If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in
quotes. For example:

               +

                   # dracut --install "/bin/foo /sbin/bar"  ...
