initrd >4MB?
How does one make a initrd that is greater than 4MB? A quick look at the configuration autoconf.h has a parameter to specify the ramdisk size, but I can't find where it is used. I look in drivers/block/rd.c and there is a hardcoded variable there of 4096. Looks like there is support for using 2 or more /dev/ram* as a logical ramdisk, but I can't find any documentation on how to do that.

You can either modify this value (which I did for a long time :-), or simply add 'ramdisk=xxxx' to the kernel command line.
