Mandeep,
I am not sure what made you think rollback segments are not in memory and only on disk. The rollback segment blocks (like all other blocks except pure temporary tablespace blocks) are modified in memory first, before written to disk. And when a block gets modified it becomes dirty, goes on the dirty list and then eventually gets down to disk. Just like the other blocks.
Hope that helps,
Gaja
