[Trinux-talk] RAMdisk size

[P60 <akd...@ka...>]

It 'could' also be a trinux-script problem perhaps.
I also had troubles with RAMdisk-size on my 64 Mb system. Trinux couldn't
use all RAM. I tried it by make changes on inir.rd.
Now for me it works fine. I'm no expert on this matter.
Perhaps I'm wrong.
(I want to get a full linux in RAM with a size of 512 Mb. Loaded from the
net. For fun. But at this time I don't have this amount of RAM so I can't
test it.)

Max rd size is hard coded into the kernel, but the max for the initrd
depends on when you build the initrd with dd.

I believe by default the last release of trinux used tmpfs /shmfs for all
partitions except for / (which was the initrd) so it doesn't even use
ramdisks.
