    Can I make Knoppix run entirely in memory?

    Hello. I have a DELL 2350 with 1 GB memoery and no hard disk. I am running Knoppix live CD. WHen I check out memoery usage during normal operations I see 700+ MB free. However, my CD drive starts working now and then, slowing everything up. So here's my 2-part question:

    1) Is there a way to get all of Knoppix to load into memory so that the CD drive can remain idle?
    2) If so, is 1GB enough?

    Thanks.

    1) Yes
    2) Yes
    Read the wiki section on Cheat Codes for the toram cheat code.

    Verifying of md5 checksum and burning a CD at slow speed are important.

    By the way I'm wondering about making 'toram' in a system with 512MB-ram and 500MB-swap. I've tried once without success.
    Any idea on how to enable the swap partition before 'toram' command is executed?
