Temat: [Tails-dev] out of memory on Chromebook [was: Fwd: [Tails-support] IRC Channel #tails Gateway Report]
We received this from IRC. Just in case someone finds that information
interesting for the development of Tails Installer:

-----------------------------------
*** Issues:
-----------------------------------

User reported that he could not boot Tails on a Chromebook
C720 (received out of memory error before loading initramfs)
user reported if he appended "mem=1500M" in boot options, Tails
would boot fine. User suggested that syslinux was not detecting
memory correctly in his opinion.

This user also posted "i can boot the machine by translating
between the syslinux liveamd64 config and grub's instruction set,
which lets me run Tails fine."

----------------------------------
*** Known Issues:
----------------------------------

I was reading https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/UEFI/syslinux/
and https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/UEFI/ and
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5739 .
FWIW, I just wanted to let you know that the current upstream
Syslinux 6.03-pre11 has several relevant improvements/corrections
over the current Syslinux package in Debian experimental (6.03-pre1).
