OS Version: 5.9.14-arch1-1 Kernel I am trying to figure out how I can load the whole / directory into the RAM when starting up. I found a little helper here: https://github.com/arcmags/ramroot So, when the ramroot hook starts to run, it will set up the zram module: modprobe zram Next, we will allocate some memory with... zramctl -f -s 10M When my OS is started up, this command works fine and I can mount the zram0 device. But in this boot mode, I get this error: /dev/zram0: failed to set disksize (.... bytes): Cannot allocate memory Does anyone know where the issue may be? Are there modules missing to get the operation done? This is my current hook order: HOOKS=(base udev ramroot autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck)
