I was under the (mis?)impression that the hugepage setup part of the script did that?It doesn't appear to set them up so that non-root users can use them. From what I can tell it only creates the pages, but doesn't change permissions on them in any way.
Right. Then, it probably should (or perhaps it should be added as another menu option, as probably not everyone would want to do a chmod/chown on hugepage mounts).
