Both netboot and netboot-gtk's mini.iso, booted as a CD, are just fine with 1G RAM (modulo cryptsetup OOMKs for a little while, #1028250), and have been for years. That's how all my VM testing has been done for years. :) If numbers are updated for netboot, maybe make it clear it's for PXE booting? > When debugging the issue is also noticed that > rootskel/src/lib/debian-installer/menu currently checks how much RAM > is present and if it's less than 250M it exports > DEBCONF_DROP_TRANSLATIONS=1 to cdebconf. > > Given that we already document 780MB as the minimum requirement for > Bullseye that seems obsolete, happy to create MRs to remove it from > rootskel and cdebconf to clean this up. Looping in Samuel who has been bumping requirements on a regular basis, and who is likely to have good ideas in this area.
