This is a trace of the process.
I do not know what this means as far as the stability of the new installed
kernel.

kernel-sourcecode 100 % done 18/43
kernel 100 % done 19/43
memlock: Cannot allocate memory
Couldn't lock into memory, exiting.
mkinitrd failed

a listing of /boot:
ls /boot
boot.b                  initrd-2.6.6-1.403.img  System.map-2.6.6-1.406
chain.b                 initrd-2.6.6-1.406.img  System.map-2.6.6-1.414
config-2.6.6-1.391      initrd-2.6.6-1.414.img  System.map-2.6.6-1.421

grub                    System.map-2.6.6-1.391  vmlinuz-2.6.6-1.414
initrd-2.6.6-1.391.img  System.map-2.6.6-1.397  vmlinuz-2.6.6-1.421
initrd-2.6.6-1.397.img  System.map-2.6.6-1.403

It sure does look like the initrd is missing.

Thanks.
