Mkinitcpio making changes too image? [Solved]

Interested in the working of mkinitcpio and the initramfs image it produces. Can view files within it but would like to make some small changes (to files and folders) then repack image, is this possible?

Looking at something like this http://minimal.linux-bg.org/

Maybe you want the FILES option of mkinitcpio.conf?
