Assuming you're on the system for which you want the source, the RPM
command will tell you which package a file came from (this example is
executed on F13):
$ rpm -qf /sbin/init
upstart-0.6.5-5.fc13.i686
If you add -i you can see some basic information, including the URL of
the upstream site and the license:
$ rpm -qif /sbin/init

relocatable)

Summary : An event-driven init system
Description :
Upstart is an event-based replacement for the /sbin/init daemon which
handles starting of tasks and services during boot, stopping them
during shutdown and supervising them while the system is running.
You can use yumdownloader (from the yum-utils package) to grab the
source RPM for a package:
$ yumdownloader --source upstart
This grabs the source RPM (e.g., for F13: upstart-0.6.5-5.fc13.src.rpm).
To work with source RPMS, it's recommended that you install rpmdevtools
and run "rpmdev-setuptree". You can then install (using your regular
account, not root) the source rpm:
$ rpm -i upstart*src.rpm
The files will install into ~/rpmbuild -- look in the SOURCES directory
for the source code and the ~/SPECS directory for the spec file
(packaging).
Hope this helps--
-Chris

/sbin/init Initrd
Ty foi reply,
but i need the source code of /sbin/init of initrd.img.
Becase on fedora 8 it is a binary instead of fedora 13 is a shell script.
when i unpack the initrd.img from fedora 8 CD, i cant modify the init script.
And now i need to modify this binary to create custom rules on init.
I having problems becase when i boot the fedora 8 on a intel i3 with a sata Cdrom
he can't find the cdrom:/ks8.cfg, the only message of error is:
Cannot find CDROM.
I belive its a kernel issue, and now i add a new kernel to initrd and need to customize
some rules on /sbin/init binary of fedora 8 initrd.img.
Sorry my poor english..

I am on F13, but the command should be the same in F11.
On F13, there is not /sbin/initrd, but I will use /sbin/init as an example:

/sbin/init Initrd
Ty for reply,
but i dont need the system /sbin/init
i need the source code of /sbin/init from initrd.img
if you unpack the initrd.img from Fedora 8 CD-ROM
you will find a binary called init, what is a sym link from /sbin/init
from initrd.img.
but i already find what i need
on fedora 8 anaconda installer create this init from your compilation,
and when you install anaconda on the CD he copy you initrd to /cdrom/isolinux/initrd.img
so now i can do what i want.
But ty all for reply!

The problem is in your wording of your question.
Given you do not have a good command of the English language,
everyone, including myself, assumed you wanted the C source code
of the package that provides /sbin/initrd.

It sounds like you might have solved your problem.
If not, the following might help.
Your English is causing me some trouble in understanding what you want to do.
I _think_ you might be trying to modify the init file which is
embedded inside the initrd.gz.
This file is not a "binary" but is an "executable script".
You need to do a 3 step process
1) unpack the initrd.gz
2) edit the init file
3) repack with the modified init file
Following is from some old notes from a long time ago:
I have used (not recently) this prescription and it works.
8. Modifying an Existing Initial Ram Disk
8.1 Introduction
This section
briefly describes how an initrd_usb.gz file may be unscrambled, modified and
put back together again.
8.2 Detailed Instructions
8.2.1 Unpacking
cd go to root's home dir
mkdir clean; cd clean make and go somewhere clean
cp /boot/initrd_usb.gz . cp initrd_usb.gz to clean dir
gunzip -c initrd_usb.gz | cpio -i gunzip and expand
This unpacks a complete directory structure
- the vital file is init, edit as required.
8.2.2 Repacking
Remember to move the original file first or it will be incorporated
in the new initrd image!!
mv initrd_usb.gz ~
find . | cpio -c -o | gzip -9 > ~/initrd_usb_modified.gz
The file can then be relocated to /boot and grub.conf modified to match.
I hope this helps
Jack

So, execute the commands that Chris typed on *your* machine and get
*your* information:
rpm -qif /sbin/init
Read the output and determine the *NAME* of the source RPM it was built
from. Then find/download *that* .src.rpm. www.pbone.net can be your
friend.
