Hi,
I am trying to install SmartOS on my HP Z820 workstation, which has 256G memory
and 160G SSD hard disk.
There is no problem when I setup the network, the zpool, the root password, and
so on. Finally, when I press 'y' and
'Enter' to start to installation, it fail. The reason is quite simple: when the
installing script create the swap zone, there
is no enough disk space, so it just stop there, and give me a prompt. I tried
to create a small swap zone by myself,
but I didn't know what to do next. Simply reboot doesn't work.
Have you tried pulling some of the memory just for the install?
BTW, for a machine with 256G memory, is there necessary to create a swap zone?
If so, how big should it be?
Once you have installed, you can resize the swap volume. I'd say yes,
and for this machine, keep it small.
Cheers.
