You might also try that on other live cd's. "dsl toram", "knoppix
toram" They work that way too. Definatley cool. It leaves it where
you don't have your cd rom monopolized, plus, like you said, it speeds
them up tremendously. On the bigger ones, though, that's a lot of ram
to do the job. There is only one computer in my house that can do the
Knoppix cd that way. Even then, there are times that the thing will
hang as the memory is loaded up with that next application you open.
Still cool, though.
