Bug#776332: kfreebsd-10: installer fails for 128 MB install
package: src:kfreebsd-10
version: 10.1~svn274115-1
severity: important
The kfreebsd-amd64 installer currently fails for low memory systems.
$ kvm -m 128 -cdrom debian-jessie-DI-rc1-kfreebsd-amd64-netinst.iso jessie.img
[...]
pid 32 (devd), uid 0, was killed: out of swap
Killed
Something wicked happened. Press enter for a rescue shell.
$ kvm -m 192 -cdrom debian-jessie-DI-rc1-kfreebsd-amd64-netinst.iso jessie.img
[...]
OK
According to the installation guide 128 MB should work:
https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/kfreebsd-amd64/ch02s05.html.en
Note also that installing with 192 MB and then using 128 MB after
installation works, so it is only a problem during installation.
Best wishes,
Mike
