Reply-to: gwk@cray.com Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hello all, last weekend I managed to get the 1104 SNAP installed on my other machine which has only 4 MB of RAM. I set the motherboard to remap 256 kB (that's all it possibly can remap), i. e. it now provides 640 kB base + (3 MB + 256 kB) extended RAM. I didn't try without remapping, but I believe it won't work. At least the previous snap would panic when I didn't remap. Many thanks to Jordan for modifying sysinstall real quickly after my previous complaints. I still intend to make a real small boot floppy with only the minimal set of drivers and features. Once I get time... Regards, Georg-W. Koltermann, gwk@cray.com
