Hi GRUB-devel team
I encountered an issue with a 210MB initramfs where GRUB prints the
following error:
error: couldn't find suitable memory target.
Below are parts of my memory layout:
......
mmap/efi/mmap.c:63: EFI memory region 0xdf6e000-0x17238000: 7
mmap/efi/mmap.c:63: EFI memory region 0x17238000-0x23524000: 1
......
mmap/efi/mmap.c:63: EFI memory region 0x5de69000-0x6f800000: 7
......
Here are the memory size:
0xdf6e000-0x17238000: 146.79 MB
0x17238000-0x23524000: 194.92 MB
0x5de69000-0x6f800000: 281.59 MB
Is it possible to merge the first two memory regions, and if so, how can
this be achieved?
Alternatively, how can I expand the memory region? My grub version is
2.06-1.
There is sufficient memory in the region 0x5de69000-0x6f800000, but the
GRUB_LINUX_INITRD_MAX_ADDRESS is set to 0x37FFFFFF. I changed the max
address to
0x7FFFFFFF and successfully booted the system using the memory in
0x5de69000-0x6f800000.
Are there any risks associated with this modification on an 64-bit machine?
Thank you for your help.
Best regards
