I have 2 IDE drives attached to a 386 with 8 megs.
The installation asked me which drive I wanted to install on, but then
the "set size of partition" screen did not show any available partition
space to be set.  The entry of a D (delete command) produced an error
message with "I'm dead" after it.  :-)

I removed the slave jumper on the first drive and unplugged the
slave drive and then I was able to install ok.
