man: "the initial RAM disk" → "the initrd"
In many places we spelled out the phrase behind "initrd" in full, but this isn't terribly useful. In fact, no "RAM disk" is used, so emphasizing this is just confusing to the reader. Let's just say "initrd" everywhere, people understand what this refers to, and that it's in fact an initramfs image. Also, s/i.e./e.g./ where appropriate. Also, don't say "in RAM", when in fact it's virtual memory, whose pages may or may not be loaded in page frames in RAM, and we have no control over this. Also, add <filename></filename> and other minor cleanups.
