+ <file>#poldek --root /pld -i kernel-some-specific-version</file>
+ 
+ You can also install multiple different kernels.
+ 
+ By default kernel installation also generates initrd based on mounted /proc, /sys, /dev files and configured fstab, modprobe.conf and few others configuration files. generated initrd (which by default is initramfs cpio image) is saved in /boot.
+ 
+ If something fails or you want to regenerate initrd manually you can do it using:
+ 
+ <file>/sbin/geninitrd -v -f /boot/initd-XXX-Y.gz XXX-Y</file>
+ 
+ command. Real example:
+ 
+ <file>/sbin/geninitrd -v -f /boot/initd-4.20.3-1.gz 4.20.3-1</file>
+ 
+ //-v// option causes geninitrd to write additional information, so you can see if proper kernel modules are being installed into initrd.
+ 
+ 
+ If booting with new initrd fails you can use **debuginitrd** and **debuginitrd=sh** boot kernel cmdline options to debug the problem.
