OK, I am confused about building a new Red Hat kernel. My kernel's tend to not make an initrd, but the lilo.conf I am cribbing from does list them. It seems that unless one needs SCSI support,an initrd is not needed, but I keep getting panics when it can't find init. I am running a Red Hat 7.3 box and trying to build and boot from 2.4.19 source I get from kernel.org. Can anyone give me a recipe for how to do this (including matching lilo.conf details)? Thanks, -kb, the Kent who knows more about building kernels for embedded use but who wants to compare then with ix86 behavior.
