lsinitramfs − list content of an initramfs image
lsinitramfs [options] <initramfsfile> [<initramfsfile>]

lsinitramfs cannot deal with multiple-segmented initramfs images, except where an early (uncompressed) initramfs with system firmware is prepended to the regular compressed initramfs.
The initramfs-tools are written by Maximilian Attems <maks AT debian DOT org> and numerous others.
