So in general I don't think its a big problem to rely on our user
audience making a wise decision about selecting swap or not.
If we do something we should only warn about a potential unwise decision
and not make automatic decisions on swap etc.
I guess there are various ways this could be done a

Nowhere? I'm really just exploring the requirements here.

Peter gave the example of beagle vs beagle XM as boards supported with
same u-boot etc. but differing amounts of RAM
I can also think that some boards have variable amounts of RAM (e.g.
DDR) so doesn't sound like a good idea to handle this in hwpack v2
indeed.

It hadn't realized that hwpacks could be shared between boards; this
doesn't seem like a good idea to me as it means we need multiple version
of the metadata: which fdt to use, which board name we mean, which
u-boot to use etc.

Does this really belong in the hwpack? What do we
Tom, can you confirm that passing "--swap_size somethinglarge" to
linaro-media-create fixes this?
Also, which specific error from your dmesg was this about? there are
multiple ones
PS: please include all the information in the bug itself, perhaps as a
dmesg attachment, rather than linking to a p
Jamie will amend the documentation to mention that --swap_size should
definitely be passed for some images; I'm keeping a bug task open for
the hardware pack v2 ram_size implementation.
Ideally, we'd also have a better rootfs format to carry meta information
such as required RAM size, but we don't
