+<WRAP info>
+**NOTE:**  **initramfs** is a tiny version of the OS that gets loaded by the bootloader, right after the kernel.
+  * It lives in RAM, and it provides **just** enough tools and instructions to tell the kernel how to set up the real filesystem, mount the HDD read/write, and start loading all the system services.
+  * It includes the stub of init, PID #1.
+  * If your initramfs is broken, your boot fails.
+**update-initramfs** is a script that updates initramfs to work with a new kernel.
+Updating the initramfs prevents some modules from being loaded.
