[Bug 305083] New: YaST aborts because of hundreds of MB y2logs while installation
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=305083 Summary: YaST aborts because of hundreds of MB y2logs while installation Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Updating 10.2 final to 10.3 beta2, using Factory tree. linuxrc forced me into manual installation mode (bug 299668), but according to jsrain, this should not influence the size of the y2logs. Hardware: i586 laptop, 1 GB RAM The installation aborted unexpectedly, probably because the y2logs and a testcase needed too much RAM. Expected result: - YaST should NOT abort ;-) - an error message "out of RAM, please cleanup the logs or add swap." - maybe automatic compression of oversized logfiles This was the first try, the second one is worth another bugreport... (no complete y2logs available (only up to the testcase generation) - and I doubt they are needed. Reproducer should be dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/log/ ;-)) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Beta3 logs are much saner.
However this doesn't mean that you shouldn't compress the logs - it's the easiest way to save some RAM while installation (and also some disk space in the running system)... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
