Hi Can anyone show me how to make a new initrd for a newly rolled kernel? I have to install a 'custom' 2.6.14 kernel and i have build the kernel and now just trying to build the initrd cd /boot mkinitrd initrd-2.6.14.img 2.6.14 No module mptbase found for kernel 2.6.14, aborting. What am i doing wrong? thanks

I would read up some more on kernel building if i were you Dennis
