- The initial RAM disk is a RAM disk that is loaded by the boot loader
- (loadlin or lilo) and that is mounted as root before the normal boot
- procedure. It is typically used to load modules needed to mount the

+ The initial RAM filesystem is a ramfs which is loaded by the

+ If RAM disk support (BLK_DEV_RAM) is also included, this
