Maybe you not run lilo, and if you try it, check that have a line like this
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.17-21mdk.img
in the paragraph of you kernel image, here is an example, that I found in my
/etc/lilo.conf
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=old_linux
root=/dev/hda9
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.17-21mdk.img
append=" ide1=autotune ide0=autotune"
read-only
Hope that help
