I just commited a patch to increase the lowmem trigger to 33 MB. > The relevant message on vt4 is > kernel: __alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0) I got (via serial console) a endless stream of "Killed." messages. > Installation with 64 MB still works, with maximum usage at about 34 MB > before swap activation. (total available for use 61140 kB, used 30968, > free 30172.) Installing sarge with a netboot-install daily image gave an overall usage of 36 MB, that is ~ 33 MB userspace RAM as counted by lowmem. The ip22 machine's RAM granularity is 16 MB (that is, 32 or 48 MB is available), so there's no risk of overflowing the chosen value. > The last time I tried a lowmem install, with the 20040708 > CD builds, it was successful with ~30 MB maximum usage. With lowmem active I got a similiar result. Thiemo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
