hello guys
i've made a traditional HD install of DSL and it's really great
however is it still possible to ask for a complete loading into ram (like when booting with DSL live CD)
and how ?
thanks

That won't work.  The whole idea behind a traditional harddrive install is for systems that don't have enough RAM to run liveCD or frugal. Loading the entire 120mb (or whatever the size is) into RAM defeats the purpose of a full HD install....plus you'd still need to back up everything when you shut down (you'd be running a copy of the installation), so why not just use frugal?
