Only a level higher than the default is observed. [ Joey Hess ] * Change i386 lowmem to below 48 mb. Needs new cdebconf with template trimming code.

[ Frans Pop ] * Assume amd64 needs similar limits as i386. * Update lowmem settings for Etch Beta 3; settings are somewhat conservative and can hopefully be lowered again in the future. Main culprit for increased memory usage is the number of supported languages which also explains the large differences between level 1 and 2 limits. -- Frans Pop Mon, 31 Jul 2006 13:33:05 +0200 lowmem (1.19) unstable; urgency=low [ Philip Hands ] * get rid of a couple of redundant greps from the postinst * don't bother "truncating" already empty log files [ Martin Michlmayr ] * Increase level2 on ARM. -- Martin Michlmayr Wed, 12 Jul 2006 21:45:28 +0200 lowmem (1.18) unstable; urgency=low * Do not delete modules when partman is started if no discs have been found yet.

Closes: #260949 - Also, be super cautious and use kill $pid || true because there is the possibilty for a race occuring; thanks, Joey Hess. - Increase needed ram on mipsel from 25 to 33: installations on Cobalt machines without lowmem do not work with 32 MB but work with 36 MB, so enable lowmem when less than 36 MB are found. (Machines with 35 MB RAM are shown to have 32, 32 MB are shown as 29, so pick 33 for needed ram.) -- Martin Michlmayr Fri, 23 Jul 2004 16:04:27 +0100 lowmem (0.13) unstable; urgency=low * Fixes for when countrychooser is not installed, as in a floppy install, and for general robustness if other debconf questions are missing.
