Hello, I don't know exactly where to post this question so I try here. If I'm wrong, please correct me.
I'm installing an Ubuntu Feisty server which will run entierly in ram/swap (tmpfs), started by a usb-drive which will detach itself during the boot process. The default size of every tmpfs-mountpoint is 50% of availible ram+swap, as far as I understand. I want to change that default setting but don't know how. there is a file /etc/default/tmpfs where I can change the size of /dev/shm and a text that tells me that if SHM_SIZE is not set it will defaults to TMPFS_SIZE. But if I add TMPFS_SIZE=32M it will not work. I've read something about a hardcoded default in mm/shmem.c The only way I can figure it out as a workaround is to use -osize=32M on every mount if I don't want to rebuild my kernel (and I don't). If the value of TMPFS_SIZE is hardcoded I would sugest puting a variable in /etc/default/tmpfs // Anders -- upstart-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/upstart-devel
