SYNOPSIS

unmkinitramfs [options] <initramfsfile> <directory>

USAGE EXAMPLES

Extract initramfs content of current running kernel:

unmkinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-$(uname -r) initramfs/

unmkinitramfs cannot deal with multiple-segmented initramfs images, except where an early (uncompressed) initramfs with system firmware is prepended to the regular compressed initramfs.
