Subject: [PATCH] Write sync status to HDD_LOG/log2ram.log.

- Store sync status directly in the HDD log, to make sure we know
  about it if something fails.  This won't help if the HDD_LOG
  variable is borked, but it'll help with everything else.

- Made sync a function to avoid repeating five lines three times.

- log2ram now requires (cp or rsync) and tee, mount, umount.
