shouldn't "mkinitrd" give me LVM support?

["Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  just built a new kernel for my fedora 7 system pretty much from
"defconfig" for i386 and, when it booted, it fell over and died given
that the default config doesn't select LVM support, which is what i
use on this box.

  but i thought that "mkinitrd" was supposed to check for whether the
system was using LVM and would automatically add modules for that to
the generated initrd.img for the new kernel.  i haven't looked at it
closely (yet), but i could swear that that's how it used to work.

  am i just misremembering?  thanks.
