Hi.. > I tried the following command (google) > $mv initrd.img initrd.img.gz > $gzip -d initrd.img > $mount -o loop initrd.img /mnt/temp1 Instead of renaming initrd.img, do something like this: $ gunzip -f -d -S "" the-initrd.img > ./test then mount it $ mount -o loop ./test /mnt/<whatever your wish> I tested it on my RH 9 box and it works. To be sure, use "file" command to reveal the real format of your initrd: $ file -k -z initrd.img > But this gives error saying unrecognized file system. My root > filesystem is ext3. Evne when i pass it (-t ext3), the error remains. Big chance, you're doing something wrong when decompressing the initrd image, not the fault of mount. regards, Mulyadi -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
