mkinitrd
usage: mkinitrd [--version] [-v] [-f] [--preload <module>]
[--omit-scsi-modules] [--omit-raid-modules] [--omit-lvm-modules]
[--with=<module>] [--image-version] [--fstab=<fstab>] [--nocompress]
[--builtin=<module>] [--nopivot] <initrd-image> <kernel-version>
(ex: mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.7.img 2.6.7)
