Some Questions

Hi all

I got some (maybe stupid) questions in reference to Peters success on booting
from CF.

- Why do we run a (ro) loop file system and not just a partitioned CF-Card
with FAT/(rw)Ext2.
- Why do we need a initrd? Alle we need to do is mount the Ext2 and get the
rootfs (that should fit in the kernel).

cheers

Dom
