Hi All,

How i can check the contents of initrd file (created during
compilation and install step) in linux kernel 2.6.9.

I tried the following command (google)
$mv initrd.img initrd.img.gz
$gzip -d initrd.img
$mount -o loop initrd.img /mnt/temp1

But this gives error saying unrecognized file system. My root
filesystem is ext3. Evne when i pass it (-t ext3), the error remains.
