Files extracted out of the iso ... initrd.img kernel ramdisk.img
and system.sfs (which has inside it a system.img file, which is
a actual image file i.e. can mount it using ...
mkdir m;mount system.img m)

grub4dos menu.lst entry with files on my sda3 ext4 partition ...

title android
root (hd0,2)
kernel /kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet DATA=
initrd /initrd.img

Note when booted, to shutdown its Alt-F1 to drop to a cli and then
you can run poweroff or reboot ...etc.


To extract the initrd ...

mkdir initrd
cd initrd
cat ../initrd.img | gunzip | cpio -vid
Modify the ramdisk accordingly (e.g. you modify init.rc or 
add another additional files) Then repack accordingly

cd initrd
find . | cpio --create --format='newc' | gzip > ../myinitrd.img


inside initrd.img the init contains the following code
