no expertise here, but a google search showed me were to get the Redhad initrd package. Next step downloading it. Used alien to turn it into a deb package, use dpkg to unpack it, adopt for Redhed and Debian specific file names and look ma... $ ncftp .... get mkinitrd-1.8-3.i386.rpm $ alien mkinitrd-1.8-3.i386.rpm $ dpkg -x mkinitrd_1.8-4_i386.deb pipo $ sed -e s:/etc/conf.modules:/etc/modules.conf: pipo/sbin/mkinitrd >mkinitrd $ rm -r pipo and there you have it, be carefull, I'm no expert, but to me it looks as if it could work. [[ I don't have scsi-hostadapter in my modules.conf, I load the needed driver by its real name:), so maybe you'll have to change things ]] -- groetjes, carel
