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.
rday
# make dep clean;make bzImage modules modules_install
at the conclusion, i could not locate a /lib/modules dir. i did add a few things into the kernel as modules, so i would expect it to be there.
any ideas? --
