hello to all i have a problem in generating a new initrd file in order to add some PC with a new e1000 NIC after having built it, the new NIC driver (e1000-7.4.35) runs well on the master node. but, the slave PC don't succeed to boot... after some diagnostics it seems that the initrd image file is not well generated (curiously when mounting the initrd image file, the lib directory is empty) i don't know why, thank you for any idea uname -a Linux comclust1 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl_ssi_9smp #1 SMP Tue Mar 29 07:19:53 IST 2005 i686 i686i386 GNU/Linux mkinitrd ./initrd-test.img 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl_ssi_9smp if I look inside the initrd image file, the lib directory is empty $ ls -l ./initrd-test.img mount -o loop ./initrd-test.img /mnt/initrd/ $ ls -l /mnt/initrd/lib total 0 when generating the initrd image file, I see this error message...
