Need pagefile in EWF Ram Reg?

[helloxpe]

My XPE run on CF card(size is 1G£¬Patition is C disk), the PC's physical
Memory is 1G.
In XPE,Only run one AP(MFC program), it is read only, the data read/write is
in D partition. EWF
Overlay Type is RAM REG(),i don't know if need enable pagefile support?
or how i think about the problem?

sorry, my english is rusty

Typically, you don't want a pagefile if EWF is enabled, especially in RAM or
RAM REG configuration. Since you have a read/write partition, you can enable
the page file and have it reside on the read/write drive with a registry key
change:

Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager\Memory Management
Value Name: PagingFiles
Value: <path\pagefile.sys minsize maxsize> i.e. d:\pagefile.sys 150 500

You will loose some debug capability.

Sean Liming: thank you very much!

I want to know whether pagefile.sys may be destroyed when the XPE is
shutdown illegally(ex: an electric power cut immediately)?

I know the OS may not be started up again when the pagefile.sys was
destroyed. we need one reliable OS(XPE)

I understand it correctly?

thanks again

Hi Sean,

Could you please elaborate on the debug capabilies that would be lost?
