PORTEUS Software Quantity Limits ?
hello users...
as well as i offer modules to download compiled with wifislax, it is normal for me to check them in porteus pendrive...
always leaving them in the folder to observe cross action was no prob.
...but there seems to be a maximum about 8 gb.
someone knows this structure borders definition ?
be so kind to let me know this stuff
fat thx

If you are running without the changes= cheatcode then the limit will be your available RAM.
How do i become super user?

Re: PORTEUS Software Quantity Limits ?
thx for the reply... for testing (to get sure 4 myself) i copied all modules to the base folder and started in always fresh,
the machine with 4gb RAM took all the modules (5,6gb) without any prob, so there is no mirror for the RAM size as the maximum of included software without a dat container.
hmmm... any idea ?
thx in forward

Re: PORTEUS Software Quantity Limits ?
kernel has hardcoded number of AUFS branches set to 512 so you wont be able to use more modules then that (each module is one aufs branch).
for next release i could rise the limit to 1024 if necessary.

Re: PORTEUS Software Quantity Limits ?
as per:
http://sourceforge.net/p/aufs/aufs2-sta ... 2dbcbc714d
so far the higher number was not needed. is it worth enabling just for a single/few user(s)?
if yes then should i set the value to 1023 or rather 32767 (1k may be still not enough in some cases).
btw: i see no relevance of this topic to the 'Community effort' section. will move it to Development later.

Code: Select all
+ Specifies the maximum number of branches (or member directories)
+ in a single aufs. The larger value consumes more system
+ resources and has a minor impact to performance.
