just wondering on a hdd installation if the base modules are copied to ram or does it run off the hdd?

i'm no expert but i think a hdd install works the same as a usb install
so yes the base modules are copied to ram

if you choose the copy2ram boot option then all modules in the base folder and the modules folder will be copied to ram, and so nothing will be running off the hdd
but if you use the default graphics mode boot option then everything will run from the hdd
