Look in your /boot/grub/grub.conf for a line that looks something like this: initrd /initrd-2.6.9-5.0.5.ELsmp.img What you will want to do is run the commands: mv /boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.0.5.ELsmp.img /boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.0.5.ELsmp.img.orig mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.0.5.ELsmp.img 2.6.9-5.0.5.ELsmp Note that I am running a different version of Linux from you so you cannot just cut and paste what I typed - you need to create the correct initrd.img file for the kernel you are booting. Hope this helps, Thomas
