(Assuming you meant "initial ram disk" where you've written "ram disk"...)

yes.

There's not really any such thing as the "active one". There's only the
one that's loaded. You must define it before the kernel loads it
(obviously). The ramdisk to load is specified with the "initrd" line -
here's an example:
initrd /my_shiny_new_ramdisk
where "my_shiny_new_ramdisk" is in /boot. Edit that line from within
grub by navigating the grub menu (read the notes at the bottom for
help), and you can change the path to the initrd.
3 Does the ramdisk load after grub.conf menu (bootloader) ???
yes.
