I always use 500 MB for my first TOS partition.

What kind of checks does libparted perform during build to verify
it's doing what it's supposed to do. Is there any documentation

Would you be able to write a test case so make check verifies it is
working?

Uhm... is there any reason why this is limited to Z2?
Because it's called z2ram?
So far, no one played with Z3 RAM boards.
