...unless you have enough RAM and the distro you're running has a "load
to RAM" mode. I know that Knoppix and all of its child projects have an
all-in-RAM option. Off the top of my head, I can't remember it, but it's
shown on one of the F-keys' help pages during the kernel option
selection stage (pre-boot).
