Hello, I'm building a custom kali (debian based) iso and would like to specify the size of the virtual HDD (hard disk based on ram; tmpfs).
It'll be live booted, I have 32 gb of ram and it only allocates 16.
Can anyone tell me how to do?
Distribution: Mainly Devuan, antiX, & Void, with Tiny Core, Fatdog, & BSD thrown in.

Rep:
Most, if not all, live boot will allocate 50% of available ram. To change that you will have to dig deep into the code to change it. It's not a quick fix, & you'll have to remaster the live distro. For info on how to do it, search the internet for your distro.

Re: #3: there's been lots of total Linux beginners asking about Kali. You seem like a knowledgeable, sophisticated Linux user. Best wishes. +1 #2
A possible cheat/workaround is to avoid the word 'Kali' on LQ
Tho 'your distro' "my custom debian-based iso" details/specifics may be needed to resolve a question.
