1) There should be either an info page or man page on mkinitrd.

2) There are many examples on google such as this one from Texas Instruments:  
focus.ti.com/lit/an/spraah2/spraah2.pdf 

NOTE: That pdf also has some basic startup script information which should help 
with your second question...  Maybe write an even better tutorial based on your 
experiences and post it on kernelnewbies after your done?

I found that pdf by searching for "build initial ramdisk arm" using google.  
Hope that helps...
