sys= 1.2ghz, 512m ram, 120ghd, 160ghd, mdk 10.1, kde 3.2
/dev/hda = /dev/hda1, /dev/hda2 (swap), /dev/hda3 (mdk 10.1)
/dev/hdb = /dev/hdb1, /dev/hdb2 (swap), /dev/hdb3 (gentoo 2004.3)

When I try to boot an error says there is no 'initrd'.
/mnt/gentoo/boot is empty.
/boot has an 'initrd' as well as other files with 2.6.8 kernels.
There are no files with 2.6.9 kernels in /boot or in /mnt/gentoo/boot.

Where should 'initrd' be and how do I install it there?
At what point in the gentoo install was 'initrd' installed?

Below is /etc/fstab and /etc/lilo.conf
/dev/hda3 / ext3 defaults 1 1
