Yeap. It does require another parameter as kernel name:
 
Correct command was /sbin/mkinitrd -f -v /boot/initrd-2.4.18-27.7.x.img 2.4.18-27.7.x
 
After lots of googling i havent been able to come to any correct result yet. I have 
already tried removing initrd from grub.conf and it still does not work.
 
Thanks for the help and any further help would be gr8.

        doesn't it require one more parameter? seems kernel version param is
        missing.
