Selected Answer: B
B - After compiling and installing a new kernel, you must generate an initramfs for the new kernel version and update your boot loader configuration to recognize the new kernel and its initramfs. These steps ensure that your system can properly boot using the new kernel.

B. The initramfs isn't installed during kernel installation, in the other hand, you'd built a new one for the new already installed kernel. E.g: After you install the kernel, you should run the following commands in order to install a new initramfs version: # sudo update-initramfs -c -k [kernel-version] # sudo update-grub

I think it's C - . It is automatically created when a new kernel is installed and deleted again when the kernel is removed from the system
