Hello, Sorry, it seems to me that I was misunderstood. I also made that grep and got these results. This does not explain a simple question: when running "make modules_install", where is the invokation of mkinitrd ? I cannot find it in the kernel tree (and Markus answer does not show it either).
Any idea? this question really puzzles me !
