There was an error when generating initrd try to do a :
/sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.20-0.5mdk.img 2.4.20-0.5mdk
and see the errors
look like there was a problem, the default vmlinuz version is not the
same
of the initrd
which mean you have a mdk kernel and not a mdk initrd you may go in
trouble
[root@aw280 rpm]# /sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.20-0.5mdk.img
2.4.20-0.5mdk
No module usb-interface found for kernel 2.4.20-0.5mdk
[root@aw280 rpm]#
I couldn't see anything related in the 0.6 changelog, so I guess this
might still be relevant.
