Hello Tom, It depend on your needs. If you want to load the packages from an ext2 fs, you have to create your own initrd: http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/bucd-develop.xml.html#id3256747
But if you just want to use an ext2 fs from a running system, you can add the module to moddb (copy the module to /lib/modules), no need to put it in the initrd in that case.
