I did this and didn't see anything too out of place.  It didn't look like I
was running out of
memory, and with 505M swap and coda not started up (therefore not taking up
any memory),
this shouldn't be an issue, right?  But the fact that I could get it to
initialize a
130M Data partition, but not 200M or 315M sure does sound like a memory issue
though, doesn't it?

I'm thinking about adding more ram to make the server perform a little better,
anyway,
so I'll give it a go after that.
