Do you need an initrd? Did you compile ext3, and your scsi driver (if any) into the kernel? I never use initrd for my own kernels.In my infinite wisdom I seem to have compiled my kernel without loopback support. I tried to re-compile with some changes and MkInitdrd fails - "all your loopback devices are in use."
The only fix seems to be to recompile the kernel with loopback support which I can't do because it is already compiled without it. This precludes me, of course, from installing a kernel via rpm as well.
Any ideas?
1)Install the kernel-BOOT from the RH cdrom. (Yes mkinitrd will fail) 2)Boot the RH cdrom in rescue mode.
3)Now you should be able to mkinitrd.
