I've added a script named grml2ram which is based on your script to package grml-scripts:

Fine! Did not know that rsync can do --progress :)

:)

BTW: Are there any generic "progress indicator" scripts or programs on the grml CD? Something to put into a pipe (e. g. between »dd if=/some/disk« and netcat) to see how much data flows through it? Anything from nice bars to just a KB/MB/GB counter would be nice.

For sure:
