I want to boot the system the same way Storm Linux installed it and that was
with scsi support compiled as modules. And as you already know, if you compile
all scsi support as modules you need initrd so it can load the scsi modules at
boot time in order to get access to the root system. But you seem to know how
to make a initrd file. Is it something you can share with me?
