I agree. Total regression from circa 2005! Frustrating. Now we've seen that it's possible to build an image where the token works a la Jon Packard.

[Bug 25496] Re: toRam or copy2Ram (run ubuntu live from ram)
I created a simple bootable Intrepid image by following directions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch and am booting it from my USB drive. I first tried it with "toram" and it had no effect. I then tried "TORAM=yes" and it worked without any problems. I did not have to do any keyboard combination to make it work. Perhaps there has been some improvement on this since last September. I also tested this with an old 8.04 RC disc I had laying around. I had to do the ALT+SYSRQ+E trick, but otherwise it worked fine. -- toRam or copy2Ram (run ubuntu live from ram) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/25496 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 25496] Re: toRam or copy2Ram (run ubuntu live from ram)
It sort of works to boot Intrepid's livecd with TORAM=yes, but you have to give it a kick with ALT+SYSRQ+E when it gets stuck after the message from the squashfs module. The code for doing stuff if $TORAM is set (to non-zero length, IIRC) is there, but nothing sets $TORAM. So do it yourself from the kernel command line. /init inherits kernel params as env vars, and /scripts/casper inherits them too.
