DongInn, Just to let you know I succeeded in creating a new initrd.img with my modules inside. I used dracut tool with a long list of modules in /etc/dracut.conf and I included mine inside. I noticed that it successfully loaded the bnx2 module and the .fw files.
Anyway, I still continue to have troubles because it generates a kernel panic just afterwards (can't find "block:/dev/ram" ). I suppose it is connected to the filesystems supported. I will continue to troubleshoot this.
