Hi, 

  there are several .buildstamp files.  The /.buildstamp that the loader.c is reading can be found on the installation cd using the following steps
1)	Look Inside the bootdisk.img file on the CD

 	mkdir -p /mnt/boot
 	mount -o loop /images/bootdisk.img /mnt/boot
 	cd /mnt/boot
 	ls

2)      You should see the file called initrd.img (this is actually a gz file). look inside the file like this:
	
	mkdir -p /mnt/initrd
 	mv /mnt/boot/initrd.img /tmp/initrd.gz
 	cd /tmp
 	mount -o loop initrd /mnt/initrd

3) now you can see that the file /mnt/initrd/.builstamp contains the build info like the base directory and product name.
	
	cat /mnt/initrd/.buildstamp

4) edit the file how you see fit then restore it
	
	umount /mnt/initrd
 	gzip /tmp/initrd
 	mv /tmp/initrd.gz /mnt/boot/initrd.img
 	umount /mnt/boot
