Detailed Description

RAM-based virtual file system.

This file contains support for a ramdisk VFS. This VFS allows you to map memory into files that will appear in /ram. Files in this VFS can grow as large as memory allows, and there is full read/write support here. This is useful, for (for instance) caching files read from the CD-ROM or for making temporary files.

You only have one ramdisk available, and its mounted on /ram.
