initrd-2.6.10-1.1088_FC4.img munged?!?

[Tom London]

I upgraded 2 machines this morning to kernel-2.6.10-1.1088_FC4.

One went without a hitch. The other appears to have generated
a munged initrd. The boot fails very early with all sorts
of mount, etc. problems.  Finally croaks with 'killing init'
message.

The apparently offending initrd is about 2x the size of
the initrd for 1075 or 1076.

This appears similar to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=144553

I removed and reinstalled 1088 to no effect.

Anyone seeing this?  Hints?

thanks,
   tom
