I have a large initramfs cpio file, about 890 MB, which expands to 2.7 GB, and am running on linux-2.6.36.1, in 64-bit mode with 8 GB of physical RAM.
Upon loading the initramfs, I see the message "Decompressing..." for a few seconds, and then comes a reset.
This question has come up before...is there some sort of max size. that I am exceeding? With 8 GB of physical memory and 64-bit arch. (AMD-II), certainly seems that there should be enough memory, no?
Thanks...
