I had this.
What you have to do:
Compile the kernel as normal.
Once compiled, BEFORE the reboot, do the following:
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.2.16-10mdk.img 2.2.16-10mdk --preload reiserfs
Then go to /boot/grub and edit the menu.lst file and change the linux-up or
linux so that it takes the image from the new image file. (grub does not
use symlinks)
Then reboot. All should be well.

Subject: [Cooker] Kernel panic w/ 2.2.16-10mdk
Hi,
I don't know what happened. I installed the 2.2.16-10mdk on my machine.
Since it uses grub and ReiserFS, I recreated the initrd-2.2.16-10mdk.img and
edited the menu.lst.
Now it won't boot, anding with a kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs
on 03:07
This is the only kernel on the hard disk, what can I do to recover this
machine?
Thanks for any help,
=-=
