    I am PXE booting clonezilla live. I had to add bnx2 drivers for an IBM HS22 Blade. I unpacked the initrd.img file, added the driver, created the new initrd.img, and compressed the file with xz. When I boot the image I get the following error,

    input was encoded with settings that are not supported by this xz decoder

    I used xz -z initrd.img to compress.

    Any pointers on how to get this to work would be appreciated.

    You need to have another option when running xz for the initrd:
    xz -9 -check=crc32
