+# This is a simple script to regenerate the initial ramdisk when a new
+# kernel is installed. It will generate /boot/initrd.gz which will be
+# suitable for *most* uses for whatever kernel is linked to the
+# /boot/vmlinuz-generic (or /boot/vmlinuz-generic-smp) symlink. The
+# linked kernel must be named properly with the kernel version in the
+# filename (the same naming scheme as the kernels shipped in Slackware).
+#
+# If you use an encrypted root, you'll need to make your initrd manually.
