I don't know, what's the Puppy you want to edit its initrd of and I also don't know how to edit its kernel, though I know definitely:

- one should be somehow experienced in intermediary state before starting to edit the initrd (especially if one wants to edit its init script)

What do you want to achieve by editing the initrd?

I just want to hide the text that comes out everytime you turn on it.. Like ubuntu? which has boot splash and animation..

Ok, that's something I had worked out for my T.O.P.L.E.S.S.

Here is a topic on that issue.
