I created a simple bootable Intrepid image by following directions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch and am booting it from my USB drive. I first tried it with "toram" and it had no effect. I then tried "TORAM=yes" and it worked without any problems. I did not have to do any keyboard combination to make it work. Perhaps there has been some improvement on this since last September. I also tested this with an old 8.04 RC disc I had laying around. I had to do the ALT+SYSRQ+E trick, but otherwise it worked fine.
