1 Using the initial RAM disk (initrd)
8 initrd provides the capability to load a RAM disk by the boot loader.
9 This RAM disk can then be mounted as the root file system and programs
27 1) the boot loader loads the kernel and the initial RAM disk
28 2) the kernel converts initrd into a "normal" RAM disk and
58 Loads the specified file as the initial RAM disk. When using LILO, you
59 have to specify the RAM disk image file in /etc/lilo.conf, using the

117 Second, the kernel has to be compiled with RAM disk support and with
118 support for the initial RAM disk enabled. Also, at least all components
122 Third, you have to create the RAM disk image. This is done by creating a
127 - a floppy disk (works everywhere but it's painfully slow)
128 - a RAM disk (fast, but allocates physical memory)
204 - unmounting the initrd file system and de-allocating the RAM disk
247 disk can be freed:
303 from CD, e.g. by using a boot floppy and bootstrapping a bigger RAM disk
305 from the CD-ROM, and loading the RAM disk from CD without need of
