[ixp1200] How to use large Boot ramdisk?

31 Dec 2001

      Hi, there

As I know the default ramdisk size of Linux version 2.3.99-pre3-rmk3-np2 of IXASDK 2.0 is 8MB, how can we recompile the kernel to make use of the larger ramdisk?  I have tried to set "CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=16384" in the .config, but it didn't work.

And because the kernel is downloaded from the host, we can modify the lilo.conf to make it.

If somebody have experience on it, please give some advices.

Thanks

Victor
