Thanks Hannes.
That seems to change the number of times it runs out of space, but I cannot get
it to a number that works. If I go to high, I get this error:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop1,
or too many mounted file systems
(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
failed to mount image
rmdir: `/var/tmp/mkinitrd.i18473': Directory not empty
If I go to low than I get the other errors, although the number does change.
Also, it used to work fine and it does fine in my other images the way it is.
I am wondering if there is something else that got messed up that affects the
same thing. I'll keep trying things.
Thanks again,
Ryan

You're running out of space of the mkinitrd.
Mkinitrd uses a preconfigured ramdisk of a fixed size which is exceeded here.
Adjust 'initrd_blocks' and 'initrd_inodes' in /sbin/mkinitrd to get it fixed.
Cheers,
Hannes
