In continuation of my compressed ramdisk work I took the liberty to prepare a modified MilaX 0.3.2 test ISO image that contains a lofi compressed ramdisk image dynamically decompressed on the fly at runtime. You can download the ISO from here: milax032_cramdisk.iso, milax032_cramdisk.iso.md5sum. This image is also modified to mount ‘/’ with noatime option to reduce unnecessary writes to the ramdisk.
The source code and diffs bundle is also updated with a few more changes to optimize memory usage and performance and now has binaries for B95 since MilaX 0.3.2 is based off B95.
