That sounds good, but how do you mount the bunzip2ed initrd? When i do mount initrd.out /mnt -o loop, mount asked my after the filesystem.

mv initrd.out initrd.bz2 bunzip initrd.bz2

Then mount it as you tried to.

You might also need support for the file system and initrd in your kernel used by whatever machine you do this development work on.

I got it on another way running. I extracted the default initrd for pxe. Then i build an own kernel with initramfs and this directory. Now i am able to add my own stuff, build the kernel and could easily boot this kernel via pxe.

Thanks all a lot for help and creating this nice tool! ;-)
