Does some one know what is always killing my Demons?
I start some Demons, before I start the player. When I want to login with Telnet for ex. the following message is displayed via the serial line:

VM: killing process in.telnetd

empeg-player allocates all memory to itself (for caching) and disables paging which results the virtual memory manager to kill processes as it's running out of memory.

You can add the following block to /empeg/var/config.ini file:
[Startup]
ReserveCache=32

This will prevent the empeg-player to allocate all memory to itself, leaving ReserveCache*32KB of memory to user-space applications (if I recall right). So, in the case above, it will leave 1MB of memory for other applications.

Naturally, the higher the value is, the more frequently it'll spin up the disk and cache data, but I've found values from 4-64 to work fairly well on my Mk2.
