PATCH to mkinitrd fixing this
Fixed in mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-44 . An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on therefore solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2009-0237.html This breaks mkinitrd for older kernels as it unconditionally tries to include modules that don't exist: # mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.img 2.6.18-92.1.22 No module dm-mem-cache found for kernel 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5, aborting. 1306 if [ "$withdmraid" == "1" ]; then 1307 findmodule dm-mem-cache 1308 findmodule dm-region_hash 1309 findmodule dm-message 1310 findmodule dm-raid45 1311 fi Kernel: Linux node41 2.6.18-92.1.13.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 4 03:51:21 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rpm -qa | grep initrd mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-44 mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-44 Is this bug fixed? The patch didn't work for me. I have a script to make new initrd.
