Putting this in config/scripts/FAIBASE/50-mkinitrd is all I needed.
Apparently I over-complicate things
#! /bin/bash
error=0 ; trap "error=$((error|1))" ERR
# create an initrd that will actually boot
TARGETVERSION=$(/bin/ls $target/lib/modules)
mkinitramfs -r $target \
-o $target
I am trying to make a custom fai-cd using the experimental builds.
Basically I booted a virtual machine from the gnomehost template using the ISO:
http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/fai-cd/fai-cd-3.2.16.iso
and then updated it to 3.2.23~beta25+experimental1, and then ran fai-setup,
fai-mi
Is there a file somewhere that I can tell fai-cd to add dm_mod, dm_crypt, or
any other kernel module to the fai-cd initrd?
Ah, ok. I was using 3.2.20.1, I will try the experimental branches.

Where would the :encrypt go in this recipe if I wanted to encrypt the partition
before laying down a volume group?
# Simple LVM example
disk_config sda bootable:1
primary /boot 500 ext3 rw
primary - 4096- - -
disk_config lvm
vg my_pvsda2
my_pv-_swap swap2048swap
I am an idiot. I forgot to define USE_SETUP_STORAGE=1 in the class/MYBASE.var
file. My apologies...

I'm trying to use 3.2.20.1 on an fai-cd on debian-lenny and I get an:
"ERROR: could not read device /dev/lvm"
when I use:
disk_config sda bootable:1
primary /boot 250ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro
