Caching/buffering problem when ramfs is in use (flashed firmware use ram as virtual disk).
You may want to switch to rootfs and avoid using ramfs completely.
Hi,
I cannot write big files (above 30MEG). Windows (XP and 98) claims, device not available, after looking for about a minute. Sometimes WL rebootes.
Once a 30 Meg file writing worked. But never again.
The file is in the USB-disk directory then apearing, but trashed.
Reading big files is possible.
Read/Write with FTP works.
WL is in Home Gateaway mode.
Tested with different USB drives (Flash and 40GB-HD)
It lookes like the error is in the Sambaserver.
Can it be that the machine is out of RAM? How to free some RAM?

I've had this problem too. As I am a Linux n00b, can you please explain to me how to go from ramfs to rootfs?
There was a post in the forum which describes the necessary changes to switch off ramfs. Use search.
I've had this problem tonight as well. Linux is dropping services because of low free RAM.
I'm not planing on moving to rootfs boot so I need to add some RAM. Would it be a possibility to add swap space or will this not help?
