I find it easy to believe my document is wrong, but looking at
the Documentation/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.txt file
would never have led me to believe that the initrd.img file
was related in any way. The ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.txt
file describes the the archive as being built into the
kernel, so it needs updating too I guess (and fedora
should change the name of the initrd files to be
initramfs files so I'll look for documentation in the right
place :-).
