This may be the culprit.  First, it=E2=80=99s not needed, because 0.8 alrea=
dy
included these two modules by default.  Second, 0.8 would fail when
trying to load the same module twice, which is exactly what would happen
here (this is fixed in =E2=80=98master=E2=80=99, around commit 0e704a2.)

Could you try to remove these =E2=80=98initrd=E2=80=99 lines and try again?

Thanks in advance,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
