      @butchkemper my install script increases the swap file size if its small (200meg or less).

        @sdetweil @butchkemper I just checked that file and it has no CONF_SWAPSIZE variable.

        There is a SWAPSIZE variable set to 1024.

        Is there a chance that @sdetweil’s script misnamed that variable?

              You might consider moving from the SDcard to an SSD which will provide quicker data access and improved security against SDcard failure.

              If I connect an SSD via the data port and remove the SIM, will the 0 boot from the SSD? Or is there a way to configure the SIM to have it switch to the SSD or something?

                @davidgagne pi 0 doesnt support boot from ssd/usb

                you can make a hybrid, boot from read only sd , run from ssd
