failure on mkinitrd script. 
lsmod  shows loop module inserted. tried to boot both with and without 
devfs mounted by passing lilo option devfs=mount and nomount. any pointers 
as to how to get mkinitrd to see that loop device is there? attaching the 
o/p here 
#mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.18-7mdk.img 2.4.18-7mdk

 mk2fs 1.26 (3-Feb-2002)
