Hello there,
I'm working with F20 and CentOS 7 to create some live booted images. I'm not looking to do live USB/CD media, but rather boot a server over the network with a kernel, initramfs, and squashfs. It's working well so far, but I have a filesystem issue that I can't seem to fix.
My build scripts create a 10GB sparse file and I fill that with an ext4 filesystem. I package that up into a squashfs as specified in the docs[1]. That boots just fine.
However, if I attempt to fill the filesystem, it fills and becomes corrupt much earlier than I'd expect. I've put some log info into a gist[2].
My expectation is that if I create a 10GB live filesystem and and the system has > 10GB of RAM available, I'd expect that I could store somewhere around 10GB of data in the live filesystem before I run into a full filesystem. Is that expectation incorrect? Am I configuring something incorrectly?
Thanks for taking the time to read this far. :)
