I followed the 2.6 instructions at
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=73436
vmlinuz and System.map are created in /boot but there is no initrd-2.6.5.img
I still get the same error using either of the 2 commands below
<<<<<<<<<command 1>>>>>>>>
[root@localhost linux]# /sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.5.img 2.6.5
All of your loopback devices are in use
<<<<< command 2>>>>>>>>>>>
[root@localhost linux]# make install
