Hi,

I have FC5 installed on my system, I want to tweak something in my
initrd.img file,
The problem is how do i acces the filesystem on the initrd.img,

I remmember having been able to access initrd.img on debian and knoppix
systems,
what did was -
i uncompressed the initrd.img
then simply mounted it into a temporary directory -
mount initrd_uncompressed.img /mnt/temp -o loop -t ext3 (or ext2)

but it just doesnt work on fc5 !, it says bad superblock error and all

bye,

.
