Subject: question about ramdisk
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2004 11:57:49 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1089651469.40f2c30d44364@core.ece.northwestern.edu> (raw)

Hi all,

I am learning linux kernel and have a question about ramdisk. When loading an 
executable in ramdisk, is the kernel loading the code all at a time to memory 
and then execute, or is it loading only a page at one time and generating a 
page fault to fetch another page?

Thanks for any comments! Waiting desprately for your help.

Lei
