You can create a new image of arbitrary size. I've attached a script that we used to create linux-latest.img. As for swapping, swap.img is in the m5_system archive on source forge. It's a 256MB swap disk that most of our configurations use (you just need to reference it in the configuration file and run swapon in your rcS file). If you would like a bigger image let me know and I can mail you one (it compresses down to a few bytes).

Hi all!

Is it possible to increase the size of the boot image (linux- latest.img)? As we include some benchmarks like Splash2, the space available becomes
too small.

Aother question: imagine you are running an application with M5. Suppose the application starts swapping in the simulated system. Where is it done?
Inside the linux.img? Does it make sense?

Thanks for your help,

Mario
