According to your other post your yum config is borked anyway.

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/mkinitrd-4.1.18-2.i386.rpm

More likely (since the kernel requires mkinitrd), your original problem is
a path problem.  mkinitrd lives in /sbin/mkinitrd.

Either that or more than your yum config is borked.
