Install Issue (archiso team feedback requested)
-----------------------------------------------
(maybe split this mail thread if this is best handled separately)
I'd very much like to support AUR packages in this module as, particularly
for specific hardware, I rely on AUR to get the system functioning 100%.
I have the code in place to do this and many AUR packages work well during
install from a plain Arch ISO and a custom profile.
In some cases, during the installation of a aur-test profile, I am
encountering hundreds of the following errors once I hit the makepkg on
weechat-git in my aur-test profile (as sourced below). It happens during git
cloning in makepkg, so I thought it might be cache related?
Buffer I/O errors
sprinkled with an occasional
EXT4-fs This should not happen!!
You are running out-of-free space in "cowspace" (tmpfs set to 75% of RAM).
Before all buffer I/O errors and filesystem errors you will see this:
"device-mapper: snapshots: Invalidating snapshot: Error reading/writing."
Solutions:
* Increse memory in your VM.
* Attach a virtual storage, specify cowspace_size=1G, setup a swapspace
on virtual storage
* Specify cowspace_size=1G, setup a swap space on zram block dev (staging)
modprobe zram
echo $((2**30)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
mkswap /dev/zram0
swapon /dev/zram0
