LXer: Improve system performance by moving your log files to RAM

Published at LXer:

The Ramlog project lets you keep your system logs in RAM while your machine is running and copies them to disk when you shut down. If you are running a laptop or mobile device with syslog enabled, Ramlog might help you increase your battery life or the life of the flash drive on your mobile device. As a side effect of using Ramlog, you will be less likely to be caught out by a daemon that suddenly starts sending a message to syslog every 30 seconds and saps your battery keeping the hard disk spinning.

Hi LXer,

I'm trying to uninstall RamLog but I'm getting this:

Code:

Removing ramlog ...

cp: cannot stat `/etc/init.d/ramlog': No such file or directory

dpkg: error processing ramlog (--remove):

 subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

Errors were encountered while processing:

 ramlog

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Do you know how I can fix this?

Thanks
