I've hit the bug #2768581 when booting the CD for a RHEL3 update 5.
I've narrowed the problem down to a change between version 0.9.7 and
0.9.8;

# diff mkcdrec_097/Config.sh mkcdrec_098/Config.sh | egrep
"APPEND|INITRD_FS"
< KERNEL_APPEND="ramdisk_blocksize=1024"
> KERNEL_APPEND="ramdisk_blocksize=1024 selinux=0"
< INITRD_FS=ext2
> INITRD_FS=ramfs


In order to have a working boot cd for mkcdrec 0.9.9 on
RHEL3u5, I had to make the following changes;


# diff mkcdrec_098/Config.sh /opt/mkcdrec_blah/Config.sh | egrep
"APPEND|INITRD_FS"
< KERNEL_APPEND="ramdisk_blocksize=1024 selinux=0"
> KERNEL_APPEND="root=/dev/ram0 rw init=/init ramdisk_blocksize=1024
selinux=0"
< INITRD_FS=ramfs
> #INITRD_FS=ramfs # breaks rhel3u5
> INITRD_FS=ext2

OK the ram filesystem couldn't be mounted. Please attach the mkcdrec.log
file so I can check it quickly.

To all,

The system I'm trying to back up is a Red Hat 3 Box.
