I am experimenting with a TS-7200 with 32MB RAM, and a TS-7250 with
64MB of RAM. Both boards are prone to, at times, emitting tons of
messages like:
__alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0)
This has been discussed here before. The boards are running out of
memory, of course. This happens always with apt-get. If I use a USB
swap partition and it doesn't happen.
The strange thing is, I noticed that the allocation failed messages
seem to happen when RAM is only half full. This is my TS-7200 while
failing:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 28712 17768 10944 0 0 1636
-/+ buffers/cache: 16132 12580
Swap: 0 0 0
and this is my TS-7250:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 60752 31976 28776 0 0 16768
-/+ buffers/cache: 15208 45544
Swap: 0 0 0
Is it really the case that I am only able to access half of the RAM?
Does anyone understand what's happening here?
Please help! Thanks,
Derek Dolney
