Yes, I tried it. I have two problems with this solution:
1. I don't know how to make an initrd image to the system if it is not running. Do you know how to create initrd image for a system which is not running?
Boot off a rescue system, chroot into the drive, mkinitrd should work.
I have tried it, not from the rescue disk but from within another running system, and I could not manage it. It gave some error messages which I can't recall. Could you please give step by step instructions? It would be very helpful. Or any link to a howto.
More or less: mount /target_partition. mount --bind /proc /target_partition/proc mount --bind /sys /target_partition/sys mount --bind /dev /target_partition/dev chroot /target_partition You might have to edit /target_partition/etc/mtab. Then, run mkinitrd whatever. Remember that those directories (proc, sys, dev) in the target should be empty before the binding. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
