The proposal to merge curtin:integration-memory-error into curtin:master has
been updated.
Commit message changed to:
tests: fix memory error in integration test when we allocate a 2GiB string
When create=True, the function add_image does something similar to what
'dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count={size}' would do.
That said, our implementation allocates a string of the requested size
in memory. This fails with MemoryError on systems with limited RAM
available.
Instead, we now call 'dd', which is more memory efficient.
