I'm not sure what you're asking here -- if you follow that general
HowTo, and build packages for the extra stuff (modutils, e2fsprogs, etc)
and select them in your project, you *have* to re-run the "extract
filesystem" option again to rebuild the virtual filesystem that will be
placed on the ramdisk.
This is all standard PWL building, try reading through the list archives.

No idea, sorry. Using the PWL gui tool, I've never had any issues
building a CF disk that boots properly. Even with all the custom
packages, etc. I often wonder why so many people have problems with
non-booting disks....
