I don't think I saw an answer to this, so I'll attempt to fashion one with my
limited knowlege:
I *think* that the image files are related to sczi devices. From the RH 7.0
Reference Guide:
"An initrf image is needed for loading your SCSI module at boot time."
This said, I would suspect that one system has sczi device(s) - HDs? - and the
other doesn't.
