Subject: [gentoo-user] ramfs - is it necessary ???
Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2007 23:42:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <45DCCAED.40709@xvalheru.org> (raw)

Hi,

I have question about ramfs and if it is necessary. I have notebook with SATA
drive. I generate kernel with genkernel and it generates initramfs file too. My
question is if this is realy necessary and if not, what I have to do. And if it
is necessary where I can find good documentation (samples, explanation, etc.).

And next question is: hat is difference between ramfs and initrd ??? Is it the
same thing or not ... ???

Thanks a lot.

	Pat
