Toram boot option



Thanks for the reply.  I spoke about this with a few people in the
debian-live IRC channel and have found a solution.

I have casper installed, but I am going to replace it with live-initramfs.
I understand I can use the LH_BOOTAPPEND variable, and will.  I use
syslinux, so I may be posting back about issues with setting up the config
file-- but should be able to find the answer in man pages or on the syslinux
site.  Unless I dont have to edit the syslinux config?

I was also told that the toram variable has not been tested very much
recently... I will be posting back with results if I get it working, and
even if I do not.  I just hope I do not find a bug or run into some odd
problem.
