If you are using a SCSI controller, you need an initial RAM disk. The
purpose of the initial RAM disk is to allow a modular kernel to have access
to modules that it might need to boot from before the kernel has access to
the device where the modules normally reside.

The initial RAM disk is created by using the mkinitrd command. However, the
Red Hat RPM package performs this step for you. To verify that it was
created, use the command ls -l /boot. You should see the file
initrd-2.4.7-3.img (the version should match the version of the kernel you
just installed).



Ineresno kakv im e probelma na distrota bash s toia RAM disk...
