   “How can you determine whether you are using a ramdisk at boot time¹? In Chapter 5 we mention using the distribution installation script to install the kernel versus doing the installation on your own. If you are using the distribution installation script, you are probably using a ramdisk. If you are installing it on your own, you are probably not.”
