Is this a problem with my GRUB..? Here is the /boot/grub/menu.lst

I noticed that there's no "initrd" entry in my new (grub)entry. Tried to creat initrd image using,
#mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.7 2.6.7 cpio: /etc/modprobe.conf: No such file or directory cpio: /lib/modules/modprobe.conf: No such file or directory
So I created some symbolic links,
#ln -s /etc/modprobe.d/ /etc/modprobe.conf #ln -s /lib/modules/2.6.7/modules.alias /lib/modules/modprobe.conf
Then did, #mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.7 2.6.7
It worked without any problem. Then I edit my /boot/grub/menu.lst accordingly..,
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.7-morpheus (recovery mode) root (hd0,4) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.7-morpheus root=/dev/hda1 ro single inird /initrd.img-2.6.7 savedefault boot
That's all, it worked!
Can some one explain this? Was it my problem or a Debian problem?.
when you want to make-dpkg a kernel with initrd feature, you have to add the long option `--initrd'. Afterward, every should be automized correctly.
Thanks, Jerome
