Why do you want to modify an initrd image ?

If you want to include more kernel modules, check /etc/sysconfig/kernel
under INITRD_MODULES.

Mine looks like :
INITRD_MODULES="ext3 dasd_eckd_mod dasd_fba_mod"

Regards.

I got this procedure from someone else.  I have exploded the 2.6.9 initrd
using

mkdir initrd
cd initrd
gunzip -S img /boot/initrd.orig.img > initrd
cpio -idvm < initrd

Now that I've made a change inside of the exploded initrd directory how do
I reverse back to initrd.orig.img?  I'm sorry but I've "cpio --h" and "man
cpio" but I can't figure out the options.
