/boot/initramfs-5.19.17-200.fc36.x86_64.img

Initrd is the traditional term for initial RAM disk (initrd), which after many
moons use had the term initial RAM filesystem (initramfs) ascribed to the file
serving the same purpose and basic structure. It was never a literal disk, just 
a
filesystem, like floppies, HDD partitions and logical volumes support. On most
installations, either lsinitrd or lsinitramfs will list either's contents.
