Really? It worked for me - the packages out the far end were perfectly backupable. I fail to see what temporary name you give your image while you populate it important - what is crucial is that at the end of the process, the image must be gzipped, and called initrd.lrp. How you get to that stage is up to you. > If you use initrd.lrp instead of initrd-new.img and continue on in the process > this still means gzipping and renaming you create a package that can be backed > up. I don't believe it makes a blind bit of difference - the initrd.lrp that I created backs up fine - I've tried it on a bunch of different routers. > Don't just take my word for it, try it.

I suspect you're doing something else wrong, since I don't see how the working image name can make any possible difference. Are you perhaps not renaming it to initrd.lrp before you use it?
