Try raising the number of inodes in the tmpfs filesystem.  If you have lots
of files, you could be using up all the the inodes and "filling up the
filesystem", even if you are not copying over "lots of data".

There's another SI append parameter to specify that: tmpfs_nr_inodes.  Here
are all the tmpfs options available that you can pass to SI:
tmpfs_size
tmpfs_nr_blocks
tmpfs_nr_inodes
tmpfs_mode

Cheers, -Brian

 Hi all,



I have a Dell DT520 that I am trying to image.



There is 1G of RAM, each time it complains that tmpfs has run out of space
when transferring the file list, any clues where to start to fix this
problem?



This is the latest set of values on the APPEND list, I have tried a
multitude of variations.



APPEND initrd=/i386/standard/initrd.img root=/dev/ram ramdisk_blocksize=1024
ramdisk_size=43000 tmpfs_size=900M
