We do use -o nologging when we mount the archive (if you don't, you quickly need more than 10% overhead). -m 0 does make some sense, and we do mount the ramdisk read-write during ITU, but in that case it's root writing anyway. Still this would help with some of the free space checks that have caused issues there. - Thanks! -jan _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
