I opted to compile the initrd-related stuff right into the kernel.
When you use make-kpkg to create your kernel_image just add --initrd as
a make-kpkg option .
Change lilo.conf so the line reads 'initrd=/initrd.img' then when you
run 'dpkg --install kernel-image?????.deb' it should all be done
automatically.
