Disabling the RAM disk and subsequently rebooting causes the boot environment to become unbootable.

Any updates on this?

Yes, that should be fixed now. I'm not sure if it made the May 7th build but it will be in the next one if not.

Can you inspect the contents of /cf/conf/RAM_Disk_Store from the recovery shell after a boot failure?

ls /cf/conf/RAM_Disk_Store should do it

@w0w I bet you are going to see a file pfnet-controller.db.gz in that directory

Yep and another one too, .bak

Thanks for verifying!

We've got a root cause now, and are assessing potential solutions.

This will make it into 25.03.

Yup, turns out it wasn't fixed. Just hiding!

Confirming. Applied 34c529de27b79cfbbcd0e266e17ca7809f3b2a88 patch and all good now.

Sorry but something else is missing, the bug is back Immediately after update to 25.03.b.20250515.1415, ramdsik already disabled.

stephenw10

You'll need to reapply the patch to that. The fix was put it just after that was built. It will be in the next public build.

@stephenw10
Ok. Will try later
