How can i make a ramdisk of 1GB or more

2926153Apr 17 2015 — edited Apr 17 2015

I need to create a ramdisk of 1 gb for testing performance with the oracle redolog.

I added parameter: ramdisk_size = 1572864 to file /etc/grub.conf, restart the computer and format the ramdisk with mke2fs -m 0 /dev/ram0

but, the size is always 16MB

[root @ server1 ~] # df -h /dev/ram0

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/ram0 16M 16M 140K 1% /home/oracle/ramdisk

how can I solve it?
