Wow... 256MB on an embedded device!! With that much |
| 17 |
space you could go for the gnap approach of ramdisk |
| 18 |
which expands into memory and then overlays there or |
| 19 |
you could go for a real un-compressed rootfs. |

Both work. |

Just ask yourself what your strategy is for storing |
| 24 |
persistent data across reboots. |
