Hi,

Just tried to install mainline kernel 2.6.12 on SUSE 9.3. Works fine,
but had to assemble initrd manually. Seems that SUSEs mkinird copies
modules to initrd from wrong kernel release ( 2.6.11.12 on my case );
anyone here that might have read that script through and figured out what goes ballistic with it?



I've had no problems up to 2.6.12-rc6-git8 and I'm now compiling 2.6.12, so I shall see if anything has changed when I bring it up late this evening.
This is contents of my script called INITRD and I normally do e.g. "INITRD 2.6.12".
cd /boot; mkinitrd -k $1 -i initrd$1 -d /dev/hda1 -s 1024x768
Regards
Sid.
