Hmm when using tmpfs without options the behavior is as follows:
---snip---
tmpfs has three mount options for sizing:
size: The limit of allocated bytes for this tmpfs instance. The
default is half of your physical RAM without swap. If you
oversize your tmpfs instances the machine will deadlock
since the OOM handler will not be able to free that memory.
---snap----
so this looks like what you want. kiwi uses a tmpfs for the modes
"compressed" and "unified". Only if you don't specify a flag="..." in
your config.xml the old ( depreciated ) ramdisk system is used. In that
case the rd module is loaded with a fixed ramdisk_size of 512MB
So could you tell me more details of your config.xml ?
Thanks
