David,

You will have to execute the mkinitrd command in a chroot environment.
Several emails have been posted lately regarding that specific point and i do 
not know enough of the PS3 configuration to give you the exact command to 
execute.

I just modified OSCAR-6.x so this is done automatically but this is not 
available in OSCAR-5.x.

Regards,
