Ram on boot
« on: July 28, 2016, 05:03:40 AM »
Hi,
I'm quite new to TinyCore.
I've built a VM that takes ~48 MB of ram to run with 64 MB swap.
BUT I cant boot that VM without 128 MB ram since it needs it during boot process and then fall back to 48 MB usage. Or it will kernel panic because no more ram.
Should I rebuild core.gz or vmlinuz to have them use swap or did I miss something else ?

Swap is enabled automatically, early in the boot?
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

That is, more or less, the question ;)
