The same applies for initrd. no need to do such nasty things... all u need to do is gunzip the initrd file, and mount it via the loopback. then u copy manually the jbd module to the initrd, and change the linuxrc file to load it and ur ext3.ko modules. u then umount it, repack it, and ur ready to go ;) cheers, -- ======================================================================== nir. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
