After 2.6.15 Linux kernel no longer has generic SATA support. This requires
that you use an initrd that contains a module for your SATA controller.
Thats fine until you upgrade your motherboard.

I upgraded my motherboard in my Mandriva 2k8 and now it will not boot. I
have tried the rescue option on the CD but it has no feature to rebuild the
initrd.

How to I...
1) figure out what module I need to load
2) rebuild a Mandriva 2k8 initrd file

Mandriva uses gziped CPIO for it's initrd and I could manually hack it but I
still need to know what module to use.

I tried to use mkinitrd and just as it has for many years now it created a
useless initrd file.
