I don't know why you need these. On all the distributions that I've worked with recently such issues are taken care of by running 'depmod', the resulting files are taken into consideration when running 'mkinitrd'.

And why do you need this ? Didn't the module detect this hardware ?
4. Need to run lilo now or at reboot it STILL comes up using the wrong modules. You can guess how I found that out. Lilo won't work reliably chroot from boel3 with this Mandriva distro, and boel3 has no lilo of its own. So pxe boot the node with PLD 2.01, then at the prompt:
I think that you've just created more problems by mixing all these different distributions then mixing booting from local disk with PXE... I would not have had such problems with CentOS or Fedora, but I work with these distributions for a long time (and Red Hat Linux before that), so I know them pretty well. Maybe it's time for you to learn some more about the tools that your preferred distribution makes available and how all the pieces are put together ?
