I'm trying to test if the gdth SCSI disk controller still dumps at the end
of  /sbin/poweroff  or  /sbin/reboot .

I don't routinely compile kernels but I have been successful in the past,
so I thought I would try.

I have built the 2.6.24.2 kernel:
        cp /boot/config-2.6.24-19-generic /usr/src/linux-2.6.24.2/.config

        make all
        make install
        make modules-intstall

and got
        /boot/System.map-2.6.24.2
        /boot/config-2.6.24.2
        /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24.2


But I don't think I built the initramfs properly.  I used 
        update-initramfs -c  -k 2.6.24.2
to create
        /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24.2

But the results look _very_big_ when compared to the others:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  7907485 2008-08-13 14:56 initrd.img-2.6.24-19-generic
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 49159103 2008-08-16 16:30 initrd.img-2.6.24.2


(hd0,5) is a SCSI disk
from /boot/grub/menu.lst

        title           Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24.2  Hardy
        root            (hd0,5)
        kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24.2          \
                root=UUID=c3bf9923-8fd9-45fe-9c7d-929644751f79 ro vga=791
        initrd          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24.2
        quiet
        savedefault


And when I start the kernel, I see Grub flash   Starting Up
and then nothing;  no image, no disk rattle.


Does anyone see what I'm missing?
