Hi all,

I am learning linux kernel and have a question about ramdisk. When loading an
executable in ramdisk, is the kernel loading the code all at a time to memory
and then execute, or is it loading only a page at one time and generating a
page fault to fetch another page?

Thanks for any comments! Waiting desprately for your help.

Lei
