RAMDISK: incomplete write (-28 !=4096)

[kwisher]

Hello All,

Upgraded to Trunk this morning and now receiving the ramdisk error in the topic on a client trying to deploy an image. Any suggestions for a fix?

TIA

First thing, the upgrade to trunk is an old, old process (pre 1.4.4). If you are on the 1.5.7 dev branch then that is the right location to be.

The error is because the ram disk minimum size was changed in 1.5.6 or 1.5.7 (I don’t remember which). You need to update a FOG Configuration->Fog Settings parameter->TFTP Server->KERNEL RAMDISK SIZE set it to 275000 from the original value of 127000

275000

Thank you. Changing that setting solved the problem. Now, can you provide a link to the proper instructions on how to update to the latest stable branch?

@kwisher So you used the git method (if you followed the upgrade to trunk instructions)?

If so what version does fog say its at in the fog configuration? 1.5.7.55 or later?

@george1421 Found the instructions to get on the master branch. Life is good again.

Thanks for the quick response

@kwisher Well life may be better on the dev branch. Why I asked if you were on 1.5.7.55 or later, stay there. FOG 1.5.8 is almost release. 1.5.7 had a few bugs where 1.5.7.55+ in the dev branch fixed.
