Hello!

Yes, I do the "make modules_install" in "linux-2.6.16.13-xen0" and in "linux-2.6.16.13-xenU". I don`t understand why I can`t execute the mkinitrd correctly... the option "-f" is illegal:


debian-ia64:/home/peso/xen-ia64-unstable.hg/linux-2.6.16.13-xen0# mkinitrd -f /boot/efi/efi/debian/initrd-2.6.16.13-xen0.img 2.6.16.13-xen0 --buildin mptbase --buildin mptscsih
/usr/sbin/mkinitrd: illegal option -- f

$Id: mkinitrd,v 1.201 2004/05/16 22:00:48 herbert Exp $

Usage: /usr/sbin/mkinitrd [OPTION]... <-o outfile> [version]

Options:
  -d confdir  Specify an alternative configuration directory.
  -k          Keep temporary directory used to make the image.
  -m command  Set the command to make an initrd image.
  -o outfile  Write to outfile.
  -r root     Override ROOT setting in mkinitrd.conf.

Thanks!

Hi Rodrigo,
        Akio is right. Of course, you can make a try with old initrd.img . Maybe it is OK for your system.

Thanks
