OK, I meanwhile got a bit further thanks to the various hints. I use the following command: ./osmosis-0.31/bin/osmosis --read-xml file="planet.osm" --way-key-value keyValueList="highway.motorway,highway.motorway_link,highway.motorway_junction, highway.trunk,highway.trunk_link,highway.primary,highway.primary_link,route.ferry, waterway.river,railway.rail,railway.narrow_gauge,landuse.forest,landuse.wood, natural.wood,natural.water,boundary.administrative,boundary.civil" --used-node --write-xml file="basemap.osm" This seems to work well on smaller files (tried 24.8MB), but I tried it twice on a true planet file, and osmosis will crash after a while (link to pastebin log is attached). It creates the temporary files in /temp, but it seems to fail as soon as it tries to staff the temporary file's content into the destination file. After the crash, the latter one only contains the XML header up to the maximum possible bounding box, but nothing else. The temporary files are removed. The failure seems to depend on the usage of --used-node. So my question is if it won't work for tech limitations on such huge files (data must fit into RAM), or if it is intended to work and I can use some workaround.
