For future reference, you can also name/rename the initrd files, so that
you have more than one. That will let you run one for each different
2.4.17 kernel you build. LILO (if you are using it) has an initrd
command you can specify per kernel image. Or build the modules you need
(to boot the system) in to the kernel and not use an initrd at all.
