hello ppl

I'm not sure if I have subscribed to correct list; but however; here is 
my question; hope that someone can help me:

I'm trying to compile mkinitrd from development pub of fedora from src. 
I'm using gcc 3.3.2-5 also from development
pub. However I get error massage that nash is not found; so it doesn't 
seem like compile error to me; but I'm not so experienced
about this. Below is error:

install -m755 installkernel /var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/sbin/installkernel
chmod 755 /var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/sbin/mkinitrd
install -m644 mkinitrd.8 
/var/tmp/mkinitrd-root//usr/share/man/man8/mkinitrd.8

+ /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-strip-comment-note /usr/bin/strip /usr/bin/objdump
Processing files: mkinitrd-3.5.17-1
error: File not found: /var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/sbin/nash
error: File not found by glob: 
/var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/usr/share/man/man8/nash.8*
 
 
RPM build errors:
    File not found: /var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/sbin/nash
    File not found by glob: 
/var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/usr/share/man/man8/nash.8*


Searching on the webb I have found that nash is some simple shell 
interprter written for initrd.
Is this file missing from mkinitrd package or should I get something 
else that rpm forgott to check for?
Or can it be because of some other error? Hope someone have a clue ...
