Praedor I had the same trouble and found out that the initrd.img was bad. Deleted it. Recreated it, ignored the warnings and I was able get it running. One note the only way I could create a working 25mdk kernel (or 18 for that matter) was to first boot into the stock 25mdk as distributed and then create my initrd. For whatever reason from 13mdk I couldn't create a working initrd for 18 or 25.
