Hi,
I noticed Xen used Module directive to load RAMDISK for XenLinux in boot grub config file instead of regular initrd. Why can't we use initrd here? I tried to change back to initrd and Linux reports an error kernal panic message: Linux kernel must be loaded before ramdisk. 

Could anyone here explain about this?

Thanks,

Liang
