ramdisk, not ramfs --
from plan9.ini(8):
ramdiskX=size
ramdiskX=size sectorsize
ramdiskX=address size sectorsize
This reserves physical memory as a ramdisk that will appear
as sd(3) device sdZX. When the address argument is omited
or zero, then the ramdisk will be allocated from the top of
physical memory.
so something like
ramdisk0=1G
cfs=#S/sdZ0
in plan9.ini. (someone correct me if any of this is wrong, I've since
reformatted my thumb drive I used to boot this way).
