!!DESCRIPTION
__make-autoinst-initrd__ creates an initalization ramdisk for use by the operating system autoinstaller. It takes a single, mandatory argument: the kernel package containing the kernel to be used for the initrd and floppy boot environment. If an autoinstall disk for another architecture is needed, then the ''--arch'' argument can be given to specify the architecture.
-The initialization ramdisk consists of a compressed ext2 filesystem, and is left in the current directory as ''initrd.gz'' . This file is typically placed (by __
make-autoinst-disk (1))__
on a floppy disk or other medium accessible by the bootloader used by the autoinstaller.

;TMPDIR : Temporary directory under which a directory is created to be used for construction of the ext2 filesystem. If omitted, ''/tmp'' is used.
