This is my crash script for 2.4.17-rc1 and rc2 It works exactly as expected first time. Second time your system is toast with an exception error. I think it kills the daemon. I've tried it with varying ram disk sizes, up to 256Mb and in UP and SMP mode. The only thing I've seen was putting two of them into a script with the intention of having a one stop crasher didn't

Hello, I have a problem with a 2.5.62 kernel and ramdisk. I am using isolinux to create a cd that loads some of its partition in ramdisk. The script involves mounting a ramdisk (e2fs) on /fake/ramdisk, copying part of the cd to that mount point, unmounting it, and remounting it on /fake/needwrite. The problem is that, although the content of /fake/needwrite gets correctly copied, the content of

Hi all, I want to have a warmboot nonvolatile ramdisk to put and start XP from ram. That means that the ramdisk and its content have to survive a reboot on a "normal computer"! (No battery ...hihi) First I make a try with Microsoft ramdrive.sys and switch /e in config.sys from Dos 6.22 and with qemm386.sys but that doesnt work for me. Qemm (8, 97)does not work together with harddrive

I'm having loads of problems with recordings, as in crappy audio quality and lost pieces of the recordings. I've been searching for a solution and the solutions i find on the interwebs include a ramdisk, for local recording, or another machine, handling the recording. I guess the ramdisk would be the "easy" solution and the external machine would be little harder to set up. I do

I'm supporting a number of consumer devices (e.g. small NAS devices) in Debian. They typically don't export the serial console and don't have any other output devices. We perform the installation via SSH on such devices and start SSH automatically when the system boots so people can login. This works pretty well but sometimes a device stops to boot for no good reason. This is

On Centos 4.x 32 I want to create like a 64Mbyte ramdisk. Is there a problem putting 30k to 80k empty files on a ramdisk? Is there a simple howto on creating a ramdisk that anyone knows of off the top of there head? Matt

Hello, Dovecot 1.2.5, centos 5.4. We are using NFS for mail, but indexes are local and on a ramdisk.

Hello, I recently switched from 2.2 to 2.4 kernel. Each partition already contains a journal. I tried kernel-2.4.5-0.2.9 from RedHat Rawhide, where ext3/jbd is modularized. For the people who want to try this kernel, you first need to rebuild it, and enable CONFIG_JBD_DEBUG. This solves an unresolved symbol in jbd.o which prevents ext3 to load. (This issue will be solved in next RawHide) My

This patch (against unstable) makes sure that the skel/etc/init.d/rcS file is executable before building the final ramdisk image. This should fix the problem some people are having with their ramdisk builds. -- Dan Smith IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: danms@us.ibm.com _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list

Hello! I'd like to load a ramdisk with syslinux, but from another disk. And I've found this in the syslinux faq: "An initrd is loaded from a DOS file if the option "initrd=filename" (where filename is the filename of the initrd image; the file must be located in the root directory on the boot floppy)"

Hi All, I am using Centos4.0 and running Squid Reverse Proxy for image caching , i have configured RAMDISK of 265 MB for one cache folder in preproduction environment for testing now i have upgraded RAM upto 8GB, but when i change ramdisk_size parameter in grub.conf and rebooted the server when i tried to format and mount it doesn't work. Can anyone please help me how to increase RAMDISK

<..trying again after changing outgoing e-mail options to avoid bad headers...> I'm trying to use syslinux 3.08-pre11 on a Gateway E4000 with the (sample) config file below, and the ramdisk images fail to boot if selected as a menu option, but do boot if I press ESC and type the command line manually. The two options are for the same floppy image, but the first is compressed, the
