With the current catalyst systems, I think only /root /var and /etc are "writeable". Logging should only take place in /var/log as the software is default-configured for that. As someone previously said, using df should show the space left on the ramdisk. > I'm running a system w/ 512Meg of ram that is locking up, and I think > it is related to the ammount of free space on the disk... It's running rock-solid on my systems with 64Mb RAM for months now. Configuring logrotate to limit the amount of data logged is important to ensure swift operation though. btw, GNAP 1.5 is out since a few days, you can see it on the GNAP page. It's a major reconditioning of the gnap_make and gnap_overlay scripts to facilitate use and enable new functions. I'm writing ebuilds for that version that will simplify installation, then things will be announced officially. -- Koon -- gentoo-embedded@gentoo.org mailing list
