I'm sure my wrap settings are going to mess this up.....

All on one line....

cp initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptlcustom.img
/tmp/initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptlcustom.img.gz

cd /tmp
gunzip initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptlcustom.img.gz
cat initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptlcustom.img | cpio -it

This will show you all the files in the archive.  cpio is similar to tar.

Then do the same thing with initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl.img and compare
the output.  On the same hardware they should be the same...

One thing that does bother me....  I don't quite understand your earlier
comment of "Fedora is installed what host OS on vmware".  Not sure what
you were trying to communicate.
