Create and boot a SSH ramdisk on checkm8 devices

Prerequsites

Clone and cd into this repository: git clone https://github.com/verygenericname/SSHRD_Script --recursive && cd SSHRD_Script
- If you have cloned this before, run cd SSHRD_Script && git pull to pull new changes
Run ./sshrd.sh <iOS version for ramdisk>, without the <>.
- The iOS version doesn't have to be the version you're currently on, but it should be close enough, and SEP has to be compatible
- If you're on Linux, you will not be able to make a ramdisk for 16.1+, please use something lower instead, like 16.0
  - This is due to ramdisks switching to APFS over HFS+, and another dmg library would have to be used
Place your device into DFU mode
- A11 users, go to recovery first, then DFU.
Run ./sshrd.sh boot to boot the ramdisk
Run ./sshrd.sh ssh to connect to SSH on your device
Finally, to mount the filesystems, run mount_filesystems
- /var is mounted to /mnt2 in the ssh session.
- /private/preboot is mounted to /mnt6.
- DO NOT RUN THIS IF THE DEVICE IS ON A REALLY OLD VERSION!!!!!!!
Have fun!

On Linux, usbmuxd will have to be restarted. On most distros, it's as simple as these 2 commands in another terminal:

sudo systemctl stop usbmuxd
sudo usbmuxd -p -f
