Virtual filesystem size is low

Post#1 by Megafab » 24 Jun 2021, 12:01

Hi,

After creating a module with two files of about 100 mb, when installing Kiosk I have this message :

Warning : virtual filesystem size is low. If system installation fails then it could be due to not enough of RAM avalable on this PC.


Is there a limitation?
The pc has 4 Gb
the ISO is 500 mb

Thanks

System partition is limited to 900MB so your ISO cannot be larger that that.
Some modules may be downloaded during the installation, browser, printing, etc and they make the final ISO larger.

System needs the RAM size of approx 3 x ISO size for installation/reconfiguration/upgrade.

If you get this warning then you must be close to the limit.

Thanks
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.
