      Noticed that with the Use RAM Disk option disabled (unchecked) the periodic backups still occur.  Think it would be better to not back them up when the ram disk option is not enabled.

      So remove the cron jobs unless ram disk option is enabled and the periodic backup option is set.

      Thoughts?

          This would be pretty easy to implement but I'm not sure about what dependency non "full install" platforms that use ramdisk by default, such as nano, may have on the periodic rrd and dhcp leases backup cron jobs, or if they use some other means.
