you are assuming that

No, why?
becouse if the ipw isn't compiled as a module then it's initialized (without
firmware) before the initramfs or initrd is run. if it could be initialized
later without being a module then it could be initialized as part of the normal
system
2. initrd or initramfs are in use
initramfs is always in use.
not on my machines.
what does it use for the initramfs?
I don't enable the options in the kernel for initrd, and I don't give it any
source for an initramfs.

P.S. there was a suggestion yesterday in this thread that I haven't tested yet.
I plan to test that tonight. if it works then the card can be reinitialized
after the system boots, still no initrd or initramfs needed.
