Hi,

I am trying to recompile kernel on Itanium2 Redhat box.( This is my
first time to do it and actually I am new to Linux )
After recompilation, I tried to create initial ramdisk with mkinitrd.
However, it failed with following error messages...
Does anyone have idea about what is jdb? And how can i make the ramdisk
successfully?

Any help or hints will be greatly appreciated.( I am not on the list,
could you kindly cc your answer or suggestion to sho@mailprove.com ? )
