Some questions on Loram-cdrom
-
Hi
Very interesting the idea of Loram-cdrom, but want to know more about the way it works.
I've seen in the boot folder, a tiny rootfs.gz in it. I suppose it's the only thing lauched in RAM .. ?
Would it be possible to have rather the classical 30mb rootfs.gz in that place ?
My final project is to have a loram-cdrom iso , with an uncompressed xvesa Slitaz (+-100mb) launch in RAM at boot. And beside this,
some more heavier packages installed in /usr but remaining on the cdrom (not launched in RAM) (+- 600mb)
Finally, and I saw no info about this, make it Live CD but also Live USB.
This could be a very good solution to use the whole space of a CD but still have the essential in RAM

For people looking for a fully featured Distro, I would say yes.
Personally, I would use it if it came with GIMP, XChat, codecs, flash, java, Pidgin, etc - pretty much like Mint Linux, but built up on SliTaz's core. That would be an amazing achievement. I still think we should wait for SliTaz 4 to come out. From what I've read on this forum, it'll come with LXDE 2 and full udev support without the need for HAL. Pretty soon we'll show those Lupu Puppy supporters a thing for two ;)
Howdy, Stranger!
