About the size of zram. Lubuntu and the zram-config package in ubuntu uses half of the physical memory. At least this is a more sane setting then setting it to use all available RAM. And of course you are right swappiness=0 does not mean it waits until ram is full to swap out. Swappiness is only a

Hi Leszek,
John has zRAM in Raring. It was pulled in by a package he installed, and
I try to help him switch it off.
Probably it is better to do it in /etc/init.d, but I am not familiar
with that method, so I didn't suggest that method. Please describe it,
I'm reading and learning
Honestlky I don't get the cronjob. Why is it necessary? On reboot the init system runs the stop command on zram-config in /etc/init.d which dies exactly the same as the cronjob

Lowered the RAM to 128 MiB and the Suacy Live CD still boots and is
usable if somewhat slooow. Can't install with it though. It fills the
swap space up rather quickly.

art with a computer without linux, there will be no swap, and
if the RAM is below 1 GB (or maybe below 768MB), you should start
editing the partitions with for example gparted, and at least create
swap. I think it is too late at the partitioning page of the installer
