1-Backup the initrd for 5.19.

According to the man page for initrd, it should be in "/dev" and/or "/".
   But using "ls -a", I don't see initrd in either place.  The "whereis"
command only find a compressed man page.  Where is "initrd"?

/boot/initramfs-5.19.17-200.fc36.x86_64.img
...
What I have is

-rw-------. 1 root root 33824169 Oct 20 09:47 initramfs-5.19.16-100.fc35.x86_64.img -rw-------. 1 root root 35051075 Oct 20 11:19 initramfs-5.19.16-200.fc36.x86_64.img -rw-------. 1 root root 35452743 Nov 3 13:02 initramfs-6.0.5-200.fc36.x86_64.img

I'm a little puzzled that there are 2 initrd files for that date. It might be important that Oct. 20 is the day I first did a weekly "dnf upgrade", and then upgraded from f35 to f36. Is the 11:19 the one I should back up, or should I back up both Oct. 20 files?

I'm now shutting down for the night. I'll try booting up with the 5.19 kernel (as you suggested) in the morning when I power up the workstation.

thanks,
Bill.
