 # Log2Ram
-Like ramlog for systemd (on debian 8 jessie for example).
+Log2Ram works just like ramlog for systemd (on Debian 8 Jessie for example).

-Explanations: The script creates a `/var/log` mount point in RAM. So any writing of the log to the `/var/log` folder will not actually be written to disk (in this case to the SD card for a Raspberry Pi) but directly to RAM. By default, every day, the CRON will launch a synchronization of the RAM to the folder located on the physical disk. The script will also make this copy of RAM to disk in case of machine shutdown (but cannot do it in case of power failure). This way you avoid excessive writing on the SD card.

-## Install
-### With APT (recommended)
-    echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/azlux-archive-keyring.gpg] http://packages.azlux.fr/debian/ bullseye main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/azlux.list

 ### Manually

-    cd log2ram-master
-    chmod +x install.sh && sudo ./install.sh
-    cd ..
-    rm -r log2ram-master
 
-For better performances. `RSYNC` is a recommended package.

 ## Is it working?
 After installing and rebooting, use systemctl to check if Log2Ram started successfully:
 
-```
+```bash
 systemctl status log2ram
 ```
 
-This will show a color-coded status (green active/red failed) as well as the last few log lines. To show the full log (scrolled to the end), run:

 The log is also written to `/var/log/log2ram.log`.

+## Upgrading

+You need to stop Log2Ram (`service log2ram stop`) and execute the [installation](#installation) process. If you used APT, this will be done automatically.

 ### Existing content in `/var/log` too large for RAM
