# Limits microSD card write operation to a minimum by moving temporary and log files to RAM.
# Several packages are removed and the default logging service is replaced.
# The file system is still in read/write mode, so RaspAP settings can be saved.
# Write access can be checked with "iotop -aoP".
# Remaining access originates mainly from the ext4 journal update (process jbd2).

# Exit on error
set -o errexit
# Exit on error inside functions
set -o errtrace

# Set defaults
