man mkinitrd but to get to the point: mkinitrd <image name> <kernel name> i.e. mkinitrd initrd-2.4.18-18.8.0.img 2.4.18-18.8.0 or for a custom job: mkinitrd initrd-2.4.20.img 2.4.20 This will basically look for whatever modules have to be loaded at start (i.e. SCSI and FS) that haven't been compiled in already, and make an initial ramdisk file containing the needed modules.
