Hi 
I am trying to increase my ramdisk by recreating a new ramdisk. I steps I
followed is from /linux/document/ramdisk.txt.
a)      dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram bs=1k count=4096

b)      mke2fs -vm0 /dev/ram 2048

c)  dd if=/dev/ram bs=1k count=2048 | gzip -v9 > /tmp/ram_image.gz

After that I mounted the ram_image to the /mnt directory.
then I try to copy my stuff in the old ramdisk_img.gz which is only 2.4 MB
to the new ram_image. But the error says the there no space left to store
all my stuff. 

Another problem I am facing my Assabet board has at least 32MB ram.
But when I try command (a) the maximum I can go is only 4096k.

The last question I want to ask is whether the socket support is originally
ported in the ramdisk_img.gz file (from site
ftp://ftp.netwinder.org/users/n/nico/ramdisk_img.gz).  

Thanks for your time in advance. 
Regards,
Xiaoyong
