this is getting clearer now. can you give me an example of what is involved in running mkinitrd? i did read the man page, but didn't find it all that helpful.


in a really small nutshell, if you just created a new kernel with ID "2.6.0-test4-bk2" or whatever, running "make modules_install"
should create a new directory


/lib/modules/<above string>

once that's done, something like:

# mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.0-test4-bk2.img 2.6.0-test4-bk2

will create your new file in /boot as above.  then add the
"initrd" string to /etc/grub.conf for that new kernel.

thank you, i will give that a try. --
