hi. i've got a lot of memory on one of my systems, so i want to put up a 1GB
memory file system.
if i put this line in /etc/fstab
swap /big mfs rw,-s=1g 0 0
then when i mount it, i get:
# mount /big
Warning: inode blocks/cyl group (141) >= data blocks (29) in last
cylinder group. This implies 470 sector(s) cannot be allocated.
and i get a file system with about 124MB, e.g.,
# df -k /big
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
mfs:13118 127495 1 121119 0% /big
so, what am i doing wrong?
/mtr
