Re: some question about WM5 update loader

Firstly, make sure how large your NK partition.
Since during the update procedure, it will need twice of the size of NK
parition for working and backing up OS Image.
As you know there is a 32MB limitation for every process space, so that if
the NK partition is exceeding 10MB the update could be failure.

The RAMDISK is only for providing a root filesystem in ULDR which will
mount the original Root FS in "OS Root" folder.
In general case, a couple MB of RAMDISK space should be plenty.

While the source code of RAWFS and ROMFILTER is shipped with Magneto AKU, it
could be helpful on debugging.

Hello everyone, I know this may not be the proper place to ask about
WM5, but I already run out of options.

Error during update: Function: NkUpdate::WritePartition, Line: 286,
Hr: 0x80004005, GetLastError: 8

the error shows , it is not enough memory, but I got 60M of RAM ( there
is 10M ramdisk created in it), but still plenty of RAM, I suppose. How
much RAM does this kernel parttion update required?

I can update a normal package, and even bigger than kernel package.

and also. what is the RAMDISK for? Do I need it, if yes, how bigger it
is required?
