When "sudo update-rc.d zram.sh defaults" I get:

insserv: warning: script 'zram.sh' missing LSB tags and overrides
insserv: There is a loop between service watchdog and zram.sh if stopped
insserv:  loop involving service zram.sh at depth 2
insserv:  loop involving service watchdog at depth 1
insserv: Stopping zram.sh depends on watchdog and therefore on system facility `$all' which can not be true!
insserv: exiting now without changing boot order!
update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header

So... what now?
