I am loving snakeoil. I want to see if I can have a persistent RAM disk for my favourite tracks, so I don't have to manually add the files each time I start up the server.

I've read a webpage that you can do it with ramdisk-sync? https://linuxhint.com/ramdisk_ubuntu_1804/

Thoughts? The instructions are for ubuntu 18 and our snakeoil is on ubuntu 16.

Upgrading SnakeOil from 16.04 to 18.04 is easy. But the sound is not as good as 16.04 in my system. And the upgrade is not reversible unless you go for total re-installation.
But if running SnakeOil OS as music server only, 18.04 produces much better sound than 16.04. Of course I have no idea why.
