I thought "make install" is suppose to call a distro specific
driver script to do exactly that initramfs thing.

Some good sole should just fix it up on Broken ubuntu. I would
but I don't use ubuntu I use Fedora.

Just "which installkernel" usually /sbin/installkernel and fix
in there, I think.

And that too, it's a new grub2 thing, right
