Operating system in RAM
#1
Hello all,

I have a request for you.
Would it feasible to load the entire operating system into RAM, at boot, and run it from there?
I'm asking because in my daily job, we use industrial windows 10 terminal (HMI) connected to our devices; since our customer power off the device through a hardware switch, we need to "protect" Windows 10 from errors.
What our terminals do is to load a saved image of Windows 10 from a read-only disk, at boot; every single modification, cache write, whatever are saved into the RAM copy of the O.S.; when the user switch off and then on again the machine, the original copy is loaded again from the disk.
I know we cannot have a read-only disk, but it would be great to have a copy of the O.S. in RAM.
This would be useful (at least for me), because now my moode box is powered on and off with the main switch of the power amplifier, so I cannot shutdown properly moode audio.
My fear is that one day, Moode audio will not boot anymore due to some write error on disk.

If the above request is not feasible, is there any other setting/modification to the O.S. I can implement to reduce the risk?
