Yes but Bering is using freeramdisk to release /dev/ram0 once initrd has been loaded and everything moved to tmpfs.

This is a documentation pb. If someone wnats to volunteer to describe that alternate approach I am sure Luis will include it in it's chapter. > Ah, one more - could you please provide a busybox/Config.h similar to the > kernel config?
