8 If you, like me, prefere to compile your own kernel, there's still an
9 easy way to create a initrd for your kernel: with genkernel
10 I use this command to compile my pre-configured kernel
11
12 genkernel --no-clean --no-mrproper \
13 --makeopts=-j2 --loglevel=5 --install --symlink all
14
15 To include support for disk labels use the switch --disklabel
