He was answered in the users list FYI I was just told about dracut, and that it replaces mkinitrd. But I can't do much with answers like that. I want to know how to apply that when I run # make install because it will expect mkinitrd instead of dracut. I have asked before: http://osdir.com/ml/users/2010-01/msg06748.html and this is what I got: http://osdir.com/ml/users/2010-01/msg09433.html Not much help, since I build from source not rpm. I don't have experience building kernels using rpm or any of the tools. Yes I have checked out the Fedora RPM page that has been referenced here, but I can't follow it it is not foolproof/idiotproof sorry! I am not saying that it is bad, but hard to follow :(, just easier building from source, but what can change the make install call upon dracut instead of mkinitrd? This has not been answered. I am waiting for a good thorough explanation or example that can work from source? http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/CustomKernel I have used this one: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_fedora But built only from source. How can I tell make install to use dracut instead of mkinitrd?
