Hello,

after  kernel update I almost have trouble caused by dkms (I think
it is  since the last mkinird package).

After the update when rebooting there were many error messages
but I can boot.

But at next reboot I got a kernel panic.
Kernel panic - not sncing VFS : Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) 


This  is  often  due  to the fact that the file  grub.conf  has  been
erased,  so  it is easy to repair whith a Live USB, but this time  it
was because all the lines

        initrd  /initrd-2.6.18-x.y.z.el5.img 

have been erased in grub.conf 

and all the

 initrd-2.6.18-x.y.z.el5.img

were renamed

 initrd-2.6.18-x.y.z.el5.img.dup_orig


Is  it  possible  to do an mkinitrd from a live rescue  USB  disk  as
I cannot boot with any of my 4 previous initrd files :

initrd-2.6.18-348.6.1.el5.img.dup_orig
initrd-2.6.18-348.12.1.el5.img.dup_orig
initrd-2.6.18-348.16.1.el5.img.dup_orig
initrd-2.6.18-348.18.1.el5.img.dup_orig

Thanks for your help.
