# para sistemas debian puros, para ubuntu onde o init é diferente tente outros meios
# Make the script executable & add it to default run levels:
# sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/zram
# sudo update-rc.d zram defaults
# After booting verify the module is loaded with:
# lsmod | grep zram
# para ubuntu faça:
# https://gist.github.com/1583992
# sudo add-apt-repository ppa:shnatsel/zram
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get install zramswap-enabler
