Hello,
I have a container that has a large read-only database.
I have enough RAM so that it could accommodate the entire root.hdd file.
I am not concerned with data loss. I would simple like (for example) to clone an existing container and copy it into a ramdisk.
I have tried tmpfs but unfortunately found out that Ploop only supports ext3/ext4.
So I tried using tmpfs and then created a loop within it, and then mounting an ext4 file system. Not perfect due to the extra layer, but I figured it might work...
Ploop seemed to be ok with this and started the container. However, once within the container I am unable to write anything and receive -
"No space left on device"
I suppose something is still unhappy with the Ploop driver.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you.
