Hello Maurice!

Yep..  pretty easy, just as I thought.  I have a friend who uses ramdisk a  
lot, primarily for various "processing" purposes, and even uses Standby for  
the pc when he needs to travel of end for the day.

The problem in his case though, his laptop batt might be a bit on the low  
side, and when he tries to come out of standby everything he was in the  
middle of "processing" would be gone when the machine would need a full  
restart.


 MK> What version of busybox do you have?  That looks to be your salvation.

H:\temp>busybox --help

So.. no tmpfs.
