If you compile in "enough" drivers, instead of making them modules, you won't need an initrd. "Enough" means at least the driver for your hard disk, the filesystem for your root partition, and maybe your keyboard, mouse, and video.
Why wouldn't you compile-in filesystem and video support? I mean, the system has to use them the entire time it's up. So why would anybody make them module? - Paul
