Hmm so if the entire disk is unused where is /boot in this configuration?
- ZiiS 4y agoIt can netboot.
- AtlasBarfed 4y ago... so it wastes memory instead of disk? Unless we are talking about, like, a 100MB ramdisk, why is that a good thing? And really, I'd prefer a 10MB ramdisk.
- cbarrick 4y agoDiskless servers are not uncommon
- latchkey 4y agoI've got over 10k of them. ;-)
- andrewrynhard 4y agoIt is a 50MB squashfs.
- giancarlostoro 4y agoThats impressive honestly.
- ReptileMan 4y agoProbably makes full disk encryption easier. Also compared to how much memory you can have on a modern server - it's trivial amount
