Sometimes when I run Linux from USB stick. I get many options including "Copy to RAM". What does it mean?

"Copy to RAM" means that it will copy essential system files into the memory from where it will be executed, thus leaving the flash or a CD/DVD available - you can remove it and still be able to operate the system on normal basis.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
