Hello all, |
| 2 |
I recently installed qemu; when I launch it I get this message: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
"You do not have enough space in '/dev/shm' for the 450 MB of QEMU virtual RAM. |
| 5 |
To have more space available provided you have enough RAM and swap, do as root: |
| 6 |
umount /dev/shm |
| 7 |
mount -t tmpfs -o size=466m none /dev/shm" |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
OK, it works; so in order to avoid doing this every time i added |
| 10 |
"size=466m" to the options column of fstab. It seems to work allright but |
| 11 |
for the fact that then firefox does not work anymore: I can launch it, but |
| 12 |
then it freezes. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
And then if I issue by hand these commands, firefox is as usual again! |
| 15 |
What am I doing wrong? |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Here's my fstab's tmpfs line: |
| 18 |
................................. |
| 19 |
# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for |
| 20 |
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink). |
| 21 |
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will |
| 22 |
# use almost no memory if not populated with files) |
| 23 |
shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec,size=466m 0 0 |
