I just finished an install of Bering on DoC following the users guide.
It did not work first shot. Brad did point out that the nftla device is
not listed in /var/lib/lrpkg/root.mount file. I did that too. I was
parsing thro' Linuxrc when I saw the hack for DoC. It said the pkgpath
declaration in syslinux.cfg should not be there for boot from DoC to
work. I did that and I was home. I do not think this is documented in
the user's manual though.

I would not know if this applies to WISP too.

I think you want to build a new initrd.lrp when you say backing up.

Following is what I do to modify the initrd.
- Rename the initrd.lrp to initrd.gz
- Gunzip the inirtd.gz
- Mount the initrd through loopback
- Make the changes to the mounted initrd filesystem
- Umount the initrd filesystem
- Gzip it and change the name to initrd.lrp
