Low Hard Disk Space! Date: Mon, 15 Feb 1999 05:40:20 PST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Problem: I only have 100MB Hard Disk (although in the FAQ it says you only need at least 60MB) I'm trying to install release 3 of free bsd onto a 386DX with 8MB RAM. Every thing is fine until I get an error message half way through installation (from floppies) saying I have run out of space. I have tried assigning different combinations of HD space but to no avail: e.g. / 20MB swap 8MB /usr 72MB i.e. the whole disk is at free bsd's disposal. I've also tried reducing the /usr partition and increased the root partition. When I install I choose minimum possible installation. many thanks Richard ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
