This problem exist also ext3 -> reiserfs change, perhaps in every file

Man mkinitrd tels:
What should you do if the initrd is broken and you want to fix it
using
a chroot? I assume /mnt is your target root and /boot is
mounted
inside.
1. mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
2. chroot /mnt
3. mount /proc
4. mount /sys
5. mkinitrd
This worked in my 32 bit system.
Old times it was much simpler. :)
