Sorry to disagree, but even with 2.4.2-4mdk *I* did not get an "automatic"
initrd built.
I'm really wondering why you got an initrd built, and I not.

If it were *ALWAYS* built by upgrading the kernel/installing a new kernel,
then I'd agree; but seeing that it is not always the case, I would *NOT*
want rpm -e to remove it.
