 I know that. But what?

 It not only gives no error for me, it creates an initrd image, but without the 
module. It does abort on centos-4.4 but not on fedora.

 sh -x mkinitrd -f --with=xennetsadfasdf --builtin=aic7xxx 
--builtin=serverworks --preload=xenblk --omit-raid-modules --omit-lvm-modules   
/boot/initrd-xen 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen


Gives this: Please note the xennetsaddf on the command above and exit 0 at the 
end.
