Any way to auto execute .sh script on startup with root privileges on ubuntu?
crontab, /etc/rc.local or create a simple systemctl service are all prob the easiest and most secure ways to allow on boot. /etc/rc.local I think happens after all services think `@reboot` with crontab is the same but you would have to google to be sure. or copy and hack the service from https://github.com/StuartIanNaylor/zram-swap-config as really they are also quite simple to create

We're moving away from swap partitions on our Linux servers
I still have https://github.com/StuartIanNaylor/zram-swap-config but doesn't do much more than https://github.com/systemd/zram-generator#readme but I passed control of https://github.com/ecdye/zram-config as maintenance aint my strong point and it was just a protest of hey guys get this sorted.

I read in a few articles that the default sram-config package has some sizing/erro handling issues. Two configuration scripts seem to be recommended: this one and this other one.

Memory caching and swap usage?
zram can help as create a swap that the majority of time will be used also mounting a small zram zstd (great text compression) for var/log will practically bring writes to pretty much nothing. Armbian have a util that does that. You are using 62.2m 9very small) of 872m main memory Swap virtual memory you are using 40.8m of 100m because dphys-swap is set to only 100m by default but is just disk space. Its prob pushed 40.8m there because its idle so its pushed it out of main memory and will pull back if ever needed. I use my util https://github.com/StuartIanNaylor/zram-swap-config and another one I did is now maintained by openhab. Dunno if systemd/zram-generator is in raspberry might actually a great zram util.

Simple Web kiosk display project -- works on 3B+ but not on Zero 2 W?
zram when your confined with 512mb as sd card swap sucks. https://github.com/StuartIanNaylor/zram-swap-config zram isn't perfect as you will get apps that pass already compressed uncompressible data, but luckily is the exception not the rule and web based is usually highly compressable.

Question re: wpa_supplicant and userconf
Have a look at https://github.com/balena-os/wifi-connect for one such tool.

Hello there, I also got a Zero 2 W for this reason and the closest I've found so far was this: https://github.com/balena-os/wifi-connect but I haven't tried just yet.
