Re: Missing initrd.addrsize in LPAR install

The minimal LPAR install file references a initrd.addrsize, which is
supposed to be in the images subdirectory of the ftp site. This file
is missing. It appears to be generated by utils/geninitrdsz.c or
addrsize.c in RHEL, but I'm afraid I don't have much information
beyond that.

The initrd.addrsize file is generated when a tree is composed, so unless
that's happened, that file will be missing from the ftp site. It's
possible the ftp site is just storing a yum repository of built packages
and some older images to perform installation. A full tree compose needs
to happen in order to get all of the other supplementary such as
initrd.addrsize.
