Reading the code, yes :)

I've yet to be convinced of initramfs really being better...  having to
shove your initial filesystem (whatever you want to call it :) at the
end of the kernel binary image is a major pain for usability.  It's
actually one of my biggest gripes about dealing with the iSeries
platform is that you have to make the combined kernel + initrd blob
which is fairly non-intuitive to a user and makes it really hard to
debug what's going on since you don't have a discrete file that you can
ask the user to send you.
