Cheatcodes and RAM

    Guess that my previous post somehow did not get through
    Am trying to use cheatcodes for Finnix startup options.

    First is/are the boot-and-copy-to/from-harddrive option(s);
    what are termed the 'tohd=' and 'fromhd=' cheatcodes in DSL.
    What are the equivalences for Finnix in as close an approximation as possible ??

    Second is the boot-from-RAM option; what are called the 'toram' cheatcodes in both Finnix and DSL. The minimum RAM for this is described as 192MiB. If someone has 128MiB physical RAM and then a permanent swap partition of the same (128MiB), then will the combined memory of more than 192MiB effectively allow the use of the Finnix 'toram' cheatcode ???

    Thanks.
