Hi.
I would like to boot Ubuntu Server from a USB disk / SSD to run from RAM.

One option would be to install/configure on an existing HDD and then convert to boot/run in RAM, optionally excluding filesystems that I would rather keep on disk.

Suggestions / pointers to useful tutorials would be appreciated. I haven't been able to find anything relatively recent (I'm thinking 12.04 probably) in this area.
