RAM Disk Management - Update II - Restore RAM Disk Soon as it is Created and Include Logs

Restoring the RAM disk as soon as it is available will make it easier to include additional content that needs to persist across reboots for packages etc.
Include the logs in the RAM disk store so they will persist across reboots.
