Issue #2798 has been updated by swildner. Status changed from In Progress to Closed
Ok, I don't know what made me write "Regarding vi(1) and undo(1): I see them both in a non-broken initrd." in comment #3, because they are not. Regarding vi(1), I don't think it's necessary since our emergency editor mined(1) is already on it. But undo(1) is a good suggestion, so I'm adding it. Most things on the rescue image are generated with crunchgen(1), so see 'man crunchgen' for further information. Closing this issue now. ---------------------------------------- Submit #2798: mkinitrd insufficient default size, triggerred by installer http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/2798#change-12914 * Author: opvalues * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: swildner * Category: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- Using DragonFly 4.0.3-RELEASE #27, mkinitrd has a default size of 15MB, but it needs about 232MB to contain /usr/share/initrd wholly. This should be evident on most systems with > grep -A4 initrd /var/log/install.log | head -n 12 /etc/mkinitrd.conf or /etc/defaults/mkinitrd.conf should probably be increased. Is there any reason to keep the smaller INITRD_SIZE="15m" setting? Also, can a static /bin/vi and /sbin/undo please be included in /usr/share/initrd? It would be a great help with repairing configuration mistakes. Thank you. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
