Category: Release/Branch: Bering Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Mike Noyes (mhnoyes) Summary: initrd - increase rootfs size Initial Comment: While loading additional packages (ipsec, sshd) from second floppy the root filesystem is going out of space. Moving the /lib + /usr folder into an alternate ramdisk filesystem has no success. I installed the Bering_1.0-rc2 2.4.18 distribution. At startup it mounts a ramdisk with a size of 6144K for root. How I inrcease the size of the root filesystem? I tried the syslinux.cfg parameter: ramdisk_size = 10240 and then default linux initrd=initrd.lrp ... root_size=09M temp_size=10M log_size=02M ... without success. The rootfs has still a size of 6M. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2002-05-05 12:04 Message: Logged In: NO Thanks ericv, I just found it in the archive: the correct parameter in syslinux.cfg for increasing the rootfs is syst_size=xxM root_size was wrong! and it is working!
