I use between 4 and 12 GB for buildd chroot and between 2 and 4 GB for the snapshots. The process is that you have a chroot origin and then the buildd (or more likely: schroot) creates a LVM snapshot, mount proc, dev, sysfs and such within the snapshot and starts the build in that snapshot. Theoretically you could spawn other chroots from that single origin. > deboostrap is slooooow... it took four hours to get to the same point, and > fail again.

The memory on accel cards have a higher priority (40) than the onboard fastmem (20) or the chip mem (0). I remember a kernel config option to use only a single memory chunk. As always: I can mostly speak about how Amigas handle the stuff, not what Linux will make of this. -- Ciao... // Fon: 0381-2744150 Ingo \X/ http://blog.windfluechter.net gpg pubkey: http://www.juergensmann.de/ij_public_key.asc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-68k-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
