This experience has motivated me to find where zramctl is being called during boot and replace it with a very large swapfile so my system (Orange Pi R1) does not run out of virtual memory. 1. I have not yet found where/how zramctl is being used during boot/startup to create swap space. So I must learn about how the boot sequence is performed to find this information. 2. I would like to search the filesystem for zramctl but searching on the target is slow and grep has segmentation faults. I want to search the filesystem on development host (where I compile Armbian). Those are my wishes from this experience. I will read the documentation to learn more and look for answers to these two questions in the forum. Thank you for making Armbian available. It is amazing. It is very good. I have no complaints. Only praise for Armbian and the people who make it available. Thank you.

Thank you for fast reply. Overall, Armbian is excellent and my comment is somewhat misinformed. The more I use armbian-config the more I like it. I used armbian-config to install minimal desktop on Armbian_5.65_Orangepi-r1_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.14.78 and Debian too. The lightdm service would not start so I installed gdm3 using apt. After installing minimal desktop using armbian-config the RDP option shows up in armbian-config and it works for Ubuntu but not Debian.

And now there is no nodm? I'm spending a lot of time trying to install different desktops and running out of swap space when running apps like web browser. So now I see armbian-config has default module for desktop which I am installing now. Why this approach? It must be a lot of work to keep armbian-config working correctly instead of using apt for installing software.
