lsinitrd − tool to show the contents of an initramfs image
lsinitrd [OPTION...] [<image> [<filename> [<filename> [...] ]]]
lsinitrd [OPTION...] −k <kernel version>
lsinitrd shows the contents of an initramfs image. if <image> is omitted, then lsinitrd uses the default image /efi/<machine−id>/<kernel−version>/initrd, /boot/<machine−id>/<kernel−version>/initrd, /boot/efi/<machine−id>/<kernel−version>/initrd, /lib/modules/<kernel−version>/initrd or /boot/initramfs−<kernel−version>.img.

print a help message and exit.
−s, −−size
sort the contents of the initramfs by size.
−f, −−file <filename>
print the contents of <filename>.
−k, −−kver <kernel version>
inspect the initramfs of <kernel version>.
−m, −−mod
