by my cutting, pasting (via mouse middlle button)
from a pdf file usb_install.pdf that i d/ld from somewhere
and every slight change i made was still operating on most of the original.
The copied line looked correct when i first put into a text file,
but there must have been some character mistranslation.
When i typed in the full command mkinitrd responded as it should
sorry for the noise
