[Cooker] mkinitrd

[Mike & Tracy Holt]

Hello cooker,
    I've had this problem in the past with kernel upgrades, then it went
away, now it's back.  I'm trying to get kernel 2.2.17-0.7mdk installed and I
get the following error message when trying to mkinitrd:

"mount: Could not find any loop device, and, according to /proc/devices,
this kernel does not know about the loop device.  (If so, then recompile
or 'insmod loop.o'.)
Can't get a loopback device"

Could you please tell me if I'm hitting a bug or just loosing my mind?

Mike
