I've put the latest rootfs onto a USB and am booting a Pogoplug Mobile v4.
In the boot/uEnv.txt file I have the following:

custom_params=zswap.enabled=1 init=/bin/systemd initramfs.runsize=23M

Initially I noticed that the Pogo wasn't booting with systemd enabled. I used a workaround for this presented here: https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,60589,64714#msg-64714

When I run `dmesg` I see the following when looking for zSwap status (but maybe zSwap is enabled by default? because this is present without /boot/uEnv.txt in place):

zswap: loaded using pool lzo/zbud

Finally I want the tempfs to be larger so I can reload service daemons during package installations/upgrades. uEnv.txt is also not being utilized for setting this 23M value.

tmpfs          tmpfs      11M  380K   11M   4% /run

Bodhi's comment here from May 2018 mentions a typo and uEnv.txt not loading and offers a solution. I'm not sure if the same command will work if I'm already booting into systmd, or if that matters. I simply want uEnv.txt to be read from.

Thanks for any insights

Yes, it always show the zswap is loaded.

in Debian,

fw_printenv

See if custom_params is shown in the env set_bootargs like this:

set_bootargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 $mtdparts $custom_params

And sounds like you don't have serial console, so you should set up netconsole and watch uEnv.txt being loaded during boot.

Also Interrupt netconsole and list the envs in u-boot

printenv

I'll work on the netconsole setup. I've done that once before on this box, so probably just need to review how to connect.

In the meantime here's what I see for set_bootargs (no mention of the custom_params)

set_bootargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 $mtdparts

Will work on the other pieces shortly. Thank you for the input!
