3.2-RELEASE installs just fine on an 8 meg 386. -STABLE runs just fine. -----Original Message----- From: Greg Lehey [mailto:g...@lemis.com] Sent: Monday, July 19, 1999 2:04 AM To: Brian McGroarty; FreeBSD Hackers; FreeBSD Committers Subject: How much memory do we need to install?
AFAIK, the minimum memory for installation is still 5 MB, and the problems people had with 8MB machines failing to install was a bug, right? What's the current status?
