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
"real" root file system, etc. See <file:Documentation/initrd.txt>
for details.
The initial RAM filesystem is a ramfs which 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 "real" root file system,
etc. See <file:Documentation/initrd.txt> for details.

If RAM disk support (BLK_DEV_RAM) is also included, this
also enables initial RAM disk (initrd) support.
