http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6149 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-22-10 12:09 --- I've bumped up the ramdisk up by launching installation CD this way: expoert initrd=network.rdz ramdisk_size=128000 root=/dev/ram3 vga=788 But the ramdisk has still the same size (dmesg has shown 16 ramdisks of 128000 in size though...). Nevertheless, this may be an other filesystem. I suspect root filesystem mounted on /dev/root.old (and on rootfs). Here's what busybox shows: # df -b Filesystem Size Used Avail Use Mounted on /dev/hda1883508 230852 652656 26% /mnt /dev/hda6 5132572 3831268 1301304 74% /mnt/usr /dev/hda8 12706988 11892984 814004 93% /mnt/home /dev/hdb1 39117040 33189264 5927776 84% /mnt/home/samba /dev/hdc 711332 7113320 100% /tmp/image /dev/ram3 2917327443 1730 94% /tmp/stage2 /dev/root.old 3932 39302 99% / rootfs 3932 39302 99% / Root filesystem is especially suspect. Consider the facts: 1) directory /tmp exists there 2) the errors on the 3rd console mention getting and saving hdlist1.cz file 3) ls /tmp shows /tmp/hdlist.Installation CD1 (cdrom1).cz file among others (other files are much smaller) 4) du -s /tmp/hdlist.Installation CD1 (cdrom1).cz shows 3531 in size It seems that the hdlists are copied there but the size of that filesystem cannot accomodate even one hdlist file! -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: I'm upgrading from Mandrake 9.0 using Mandrake 9.2 PowerPack club CDs.

http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6149 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-22-10 12:15 --- BTW, shouldn't those files be copied to newly mounted ramdisk on /tmp/stage2? Installation ramdisk could be bumped up a couple megabytes (e.g to 48000). Or maybe even ramdisk size could be autodetected on boot and dynamically scaled as in Knoppix (with some minimum size around 48000 for lowmem machines and maximum around 128000 for normalmem machines)? -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: I'm upgrading from Mandrake 9.0 using Mandrake 9.2 PowerPack club CDs.

http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6149 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-16-10 11:10 --- I've tried to upgrade to 9.1 first (so all that's needed will fit on the ramdisk). In 9.1 installer I got the following error on the 3rd console: * starting ster 'configureX' * tu put in modules * unknown package 'XFree86' * warning: Can't call method flag_installed on an undefined value at /usr/bin/perl-install/install2.pm line 296, line 6. This may have something to do with the fact that the 9.0 machine has ATI's binary drivers RPM installed instead of Mandrake's GPL-ed one. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: I'm upgrading from Mandrake 9.0 using Mandrake 9.2 PowerPack club CDs.

Are you sure you aren't running out of disk space on the target partitions? You could always make your own boot disk and bump up the ram disk size if you really think that is the issue. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: I'm upgrading from Mandrake 9.0 using Mandrake 9.2 PowerPack club CDs.
