Swap use in toram option
If the ram provided by the user's system is less than the required ram to execute the toram option, does the Knoppix CD or DVD automatically find swap to utilize? If so, where does the program look for swap, since it is loading from disc?
It seems obvious it can't use swap.....unless there is a way to instruct the program to utilize it to load toram.
The ram requirement to load toram from the Knoppix CD is 1MB-1.2MB.
Using that as a measure, it would seem that a 2GB dvd disc would require at least 4GB-5GB of ram. Utilizing swap in some fashion by modifying the linuxrc setup (or otherwise) would permit perhaps 2GB of added pseudo-ram for booting DVD discs toram option.
Any possible answers?
