My intention is create a file system in memory of size > 128Mb and use that for my application. But, I couldn't do that as my system hangs whenever I create a mfs of size > 64Mb. I did the following... a) Configured memory file system of size 128Mb using 'mdmfs' command with 'malloc' option. When I tried to copy files to this mfs, m/c hanged after copying some files. b) Then I rebooted by m/c and configured memory file system of size 64Mb and this time the copying operation was successful c) I observed that the system hanged whenever I configure a mfs of size > 64Mb and used that mfs System details: i386 system with 256Mb RAM running FreeBSD 5.2.1 a) Can someone provide me hints on what could be the problem ?
