Description of problem:
mkinitrd is not creating the appropriate root mount location, resulting in 
a /dev/root kernel panic

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Current release

How reproducible:
Install a kernel rpm or compile a custom kernel and then run mkinitrd for the 
given kernel.  The kernel rpm install does the mkinitrd automatically

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile the kernel and copy bzImage to /boot/vzlinux-2.6.17.3
2. mkinitrd initrd-2.6.xx.x 2.6.17.3
3. Reboot the system.  A Kernel panic is generated because /dev/root can't be 
mounted to /sysroot
  
Actual results:
init has "mount /sysroot"

Expected results:
init should have "mount -o defaults --ro -t ext3 /dev/hdc2 /sysroot"

Additional info: Please see the attached text file, it was posted to the fedora-
users list and gives more information on this issue.  I currently have to hand 
edit the init file to change "mount /sysroot" to "mount -o defaults --ro -t 
ext3 /dev/hdc2 /sysroot
