Can I anyone please tell me (definitively) how much memory you need in a box in order to install FreeBSD on it. It certainly used to be 5 MB, some of the documentation says 8 MB, and the PR says you now need 12 MB. I don't have access to a low end machine to test this out on, so I'm hoping one of you can let me know.
