Question regarding disk space, startup shell, and server configuration #141

Closed qingyuanyou closed 1 year ago

qingyuanyou commented 1 year ago

Hi Teams,

please help me with the below questions,

  1. How much disk space is required for the analysis? I currently have only 9GB of available disk space, and when I tried to run the analysis, it warned me and stopped due to the lack of space. There were also some useless temporary containers left. image 1690555702(1)

    2.Is there a more convenient startup shell due to the project started successfully last time?

  2. If I plan to use the project frequently, could you recommend a server configuration? Currently, I am considering using Ubuntu 22.04 with 4 CPUs, 16GB of RAM, and 50GB of disk space

Thank you for your hard work and support. Best regards

Hi @qingyuanyou

The "running out of disk space protection" was never finished and is currently not fully working. I will remove it for now from EMBA and come back to this topic later.

regarding minimum disk space - this depends on how many firmware images and which firmware images you are testing. Probably the prerequisites section can help you https://github.com/e-m-b-a/emba/wiki/Installation#prerequisites
