That's weird.

When in the shell can you (triple) check that the path usr/bin/convertfs
is really there in the initrd (just type &quot;ls usr/bin/convertfs&quot; in the
first shell)

As you use lilo have you run whatever command you have to run to update
it before rebooting? I forget what it is - maybe just &quot;lilo&quot;?
