Hello, I am trying to change the size of /dev/shm in order to avoid FTBFS due to the limited space on /dev/shm

I found the documentation on the wiki, but there is no explaination about the right way to make the change not temporarly.


mount -o remount,size=2G /dev/shm

someone can explain how to change the default /dev/shm size.

You could set its mount options in /etc/fstab:

tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev,size=2G 0 0

ok it works, but do we have a config option which allows to select the amount of RAM affected to /dev/shm ?

There is probably some setting specific to systemd, but I do not know about it.
