Hi, Is Herbert Xu's cramfs patch still needed today, to get make-kpkg --initrd to work with a plain vanilla kernel ? If yes, where to obtain the patch, w/o the need of using a Debian supplied kernel-source package ? I've been running into trouble with a certain system, that only gives me the choice of implementing the storage driver as module. However just the fact of taking the kernels that i prepared (like 2.4.22-ac4 + additional patches) and recompiling them with the --initrd option on make-kpkg doesn't seem to be enough. Even modifying the initrd-image afterwards doesn't give me succes. What happens is that the initrd image is loaded, unloaded and when the kernel get's to the point where it want's to mount the real root filesystem it fails.
