Rpi400 & !SparkFS - Not enough free memory

Is anybody else having trouble getting !SparkFS 1.46 to run on a Rpi400 in 4G of RAM? It complains there is not enough free memory and then aborts. |

I’ve not had any problems running SparkFS 1.46 on a 4GB Pi4B (and it loads and runs on a Pi 400) running RISC OS 5.28. Are you running RISC OS 5.29? If so, what is the build date? (Task Manager > Info) One thing to check: Open !SparkFS.Config.Choices and look at the values for “memmax” and “memmin” (at or near line 8 of the file). I have these set to “16777216,27648”. You may have problems if the first number is too small. |

If you have RISC OS 5.28 running then check the number of active modules you have Update: Try the latest 5.29 ROM in place of the earlier ROM just to see if it overcomes the issue you are seeing. |

Stuart, thank you, you were on the money. I updated the config as you describe and then it would load on 5.28. 5.28 is what you get with the Raspberry pi image app, but I have updated my rom image to 5.29 any way. |
