How to install Archlinux use wingrub??

I once installed some linux distributions using wingrub. These just only need *.iso, initrd and vmlinuz 3 files. When reboot system use wingrub, use these commands to boot the installation:

grub>kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=20000 devfs=mount,dall
grub>initrd (hd0,0)/initrd.gz
grub>boot

But where to download initrd and vmlinuz files? Not all the initrd and vmlinuz files can boot the installation.
Thanks.

initrd and vmlinuz are under the isolinux directory in the *.iso img file.
So just copy these two files out of the iso img with somgthing like 7zip.
