Run Frugal install from ram only
Hi
I love puppy and was drawn to it because it allows running from ram.
However, after a little testing I find a few issues with the clam.
When I run puppy install disk for the first time. I can confirm that everything is loaded and run from ram. Perfect.
However the moment I create a save file ( either on a usb stick or a frugal install ) I find that puppy reads to the file. Again I would be happy with that if it only happend once. But if I repeat the process of starting a browser and surfing a few pages, I can see my hard disk light flicker.
Idealy I would like to do a frugal install but have the save file and the puppy sfs file loaded ( on startup ) to a ram drive so any changes are written to ram. I would then like to write a script which would allow me to copy the save file to disk if I choose.
Can anyone suggest anyway on making sure puppy runs totally from ram when using a save file.
Thanks in advance.
PS. I am currently working with Slacko, but its the same issue with other versions of puppy.
