Using puppy liveCD with 256MB ram and no hdd. Anyone know how I can stop pup_212.sfs from loading into ram at bootup? As would happen if I didn't have enough ram.

I'm not sure the exact cut off, but the LiveCD will leave the CD mounted and mount pup_212.sfs off the CD drive rather than load pup_212.sfs to RAM depending on how much RAM the computer has.

I don't know if there is a boot up switch for this. Maybe Barry would consider adding one for people right on the edge who would like to leave the CD mounted.
