Largest Possible Root Partition On 6000
« on: July 29, 2005, 03:08:19 pm »
I've run across bits here and there, but I havent seend any specifics on root partition sizes on the SL-6000.

When I first installed pdaXrom RC10, I used the partition resize to 47Mb.  Later I came across an article that described installing Guylhem Rom first and then pdaXrom over that.  That got me a bit more.

I guess my question is how big can the root partition be on the 6000, and what are the risks if any when exceeding 60Mb.

there was some discussion of this on the guylhem rom or fast sdl threads.
If I remember, the final issue is a basic "loader"kerner that handles booting and maintenance.
I don't remeber the exact size, but I think guylhem went as far as could safely be gone.
