Subject: [patch] initrd.4: "normal root file" should read "...file system" in one location
Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2009 04:33:23 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49D5C9D3.9020900@gmail.com> (raw)

This is admittedly minor, and pretty obvious contextually, but for 
correctness' sake....

Item 7 of the "Boot-Up Operation" listing discusses, "If the normal root 
file has directory /initrd..." -- this should clearly read "file 
system". Patch against the latest git sources follows.
