    Hi,

    I'm in the process of creating a custom "system partition"
    for out Linux servers, which is actually an initial ramdisk,
    coming from hd or network on boot
    to load necessary drivers and perform important checks
    before the real filesystems get mounted,
    and I did not find any info on
    what filesystems can I use
    for initrd, are there any restrictions?
    Mostly interested in cramfs,
    due to it's compression.

    Could anybody help me work this out or point to the right place for more
    info?

    Thanks a lot,
    Art.
