mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.19-17mdk.img 2.4.19-17mdk Then fix the simlink initrd.img -> initrd-2.4.19-17mdk.img Don't forget to run lilo before rebooting. You may want to try the new mkinitrd rpm Guillaume Cottenceau proposed: http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/pkgs/mkinitrd-3.1.6-33mdk.i586.rpm =o= kk1 PS: That would be nice if you could set the reply to address to cooker? I know it is not always possible.
