[Voyage-linux] tmpfs too small?

[chris hermansen]

Good people,

I am running Mubox on a cubox-i4.  A great music player, really.

One small problem I have... The machine never seems to need to be rebooted,
but every so often when I login to apply updates I start getting messages
about write errors.  I think this happens when tmpfs has filled up.

My cubox-i4 has a nice big class 10 micro SSD.  df -k reports

Filesystem      1K-blocks      Used  Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs           15312852    545416   13973196   4% /

/dev/sda1      1922729832 168654892 1656382832  10% /esata/hdd0

Would it be reasonable to allocate a few more Gb of that unused space in
/dev/root to tmpfs?

If so, is there a voyage-specific guide on this topic?

If I power down the cubox and extract the SSD, and put it in a carrier in
an Ubutu machine, can I just change partition sizes?

Thanks!
