toram boot option not working

Having a bit of trouble figuring out how to get boot toram working.

Back in the cb days, editing the boot parameters at startup by adding the toram option would load cb into ram and everything would be good.

Just installed bl and cannot seem to get toram working. Edited the boot parameters at startup and placed toram in the kernel options with no result...

Is there something I am missing here?

That must have been when #! was Ubuntu-based, the "toram" kernel parameter doesn't work with Debian (as far as I know).

You can use debirf to generate an initramfs & kernel image that will allow the system to be booted entirely from RAM via a custom GRUB menu entry.
