Nope..... initrd can be used for anything that is required at boot time but
which was made into a module at compile time. Like reiserfs, or in my case,
yes, a second scsi controller. It is read onto a ram disk first thing at
boot so that the modules are available during the boot.

I haven't been following the thread.... do you need to know who to build an
initrd file?
