-  You may be using a default minimum blocksize for RAM disks of 4k (Fedora kernel 2.6.18* e.g., RHEL5, ...) so try to add ramdisk_blocksize=1024 to your boot command at boot prompt of isolinux when booting your mondorescue media.
+  You may be using a default minimum blocksize for RAM disks of 4k (Fedora kernel 2.6.18* and higher, e.g., RHEL5, ...) so try to add ramdisk_blocksize=1024 to your boot command at boot prompt of isolinux when booting your mondorescue media.
+For example:
+{{{
+boot: interactive ramdisk_blocksize=1024
+}}}
+Another way to solve it is to edit the file /usr/sbin/mindi and add the ramdisk_blocksize to the line of additional boot parameters.  Then make a new backup.
