Hello all:
I would like to know how to go about creating a custom initrd that is exactly what the current /boot/initrd is but with the 3ware raid card driver added so that I can build a kernel with the 3Ware driver as a module and not get a kernel panic unable to mount root.
mkinitrd -h for help, or for your needs, mkinitrd -k '[new kernel name]' -i '[new initrd name, should match kernel]' -m ''[module list]'
Can a system have more than one initrd for a couple different kernels?
Sure can. Just make sure you have the proper references in lilo.conf or menu.lst for Grub.
