how to load large files into memory


I'm working on a live linux distro but when I compile the programs, the init file has 1.1G size and when I try to boot it, grub says `Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory`.

How does other large size distros load their programs?

I think they use compression, which is uncompressed on the fly.
