$ mk_initrd it's a bug and suse hasn't felt like fixing it.

Downloaded k_i386-2.4.7-17.i386.rpm and installed it with rpm -U --force. then downloaded and installed modutils-2.4.7-1.i386.rpm from kernel.org. Ran lilo and mk_initrd.
When rebooting the new stuff I get: kernel panic: VFS unable to mount root filesystem.
What have I forgotten?
