I think there is still something wrong with mkinitrd and new IDE drivers 
structure.

In past here it was explained that one should not update e.g. 
FC6 to F7 because this change, it seems is also applies to F7TX updates. I 
am still far from understnading why this 
happens and mkinitrd creates "invalid" initrd. But I really would like to, 
because I fear this will be really common problem with F7 comming.
(I had to drop F7TX installation for that reason too as new kernel 
installation deleted the only working one and I was not able to create 
initrd for any existing kernel.)
