@@ -76,3 +76,17 @@ start.sh server.
Memory: server 4 GiB + one client 2 GiB (start.sh refuses a second client). Keep other VMs (win11) off while
both run, and stop them when done.
Blancco needs more client RAM than 2 GiB: blancco-init downloads its
~850 MB rootfs into a tmpfs, and at 2 GiB it stops at 48% with "No space
left on device". To test it within the 6 GiB budget, shrink the server and
grow the client while both are off, and put them back afterwards:
virsh -c qemu:///system setmaxmem pxetest-server 2048M --config
virsh -c qemu:///system setmem pxetest-server 2048M --config
virsh -c qemu:///system setmaxmem pxetest-client 4096M --config
virsh -c qemu:///system setmem pxetest-client 4096M --config
Menu keys from the host: `virsh -c qemu:///system send-key <vm> KEY_DOWN`
(separator lines are skipped: Down x1 = Blancco, x3 = Clonezilla,
x4 = Memtest), then KEY_ENTER; startnet answers are KEY_<digit> + KEY_ENTER.
