Success at last !
I had to turn MODULES=dep to MODULES=most in initramfs... This is what I
had with dep:
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/drivers/usb/core/usbcore.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/drivers/md/dm-mod.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/drivers/scsi/sd_mod.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/fs/mbcache.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/fs/ext3/ext3.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/fs/jbd/jbd.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/fs/nls/nls_base.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-ixp4xx/kernel/lib/crc-t10dif.ko
I wonder what modules were missing...
