I got this same message when I recompiled my first kernel, the cause is
your filesystem requires and initrd RAM disk. From a LiveCD you can try
mounting and chrooting into your friend's computer, then:
/# cd /boot
# uname -r
# ls -la
/(At this point look for something like initrd.img-kernelversion,
replacing kernelversion with the output of /uname -r/)
/# mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd-kernelversion kernelversion
# vim grub/menu.lst
/
You'll have to add the initrd line to your kernel list at the bottom of
the file. Mine, for example, looks like this:
/
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.15-1-486 (on /dev/hda1)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1-486 root=/dev/hda1 ro
*initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-1-486 *
savedefault
boot
/Add the initrd line to both your normal kernel and recovery kernel,
unmount your friend's filesystem and hope that it works.
