I didnt read the lowmem.txt back then (when i installed the 386) and i had no problems. I did to things, although: 1. I added the swap partition before installing, this way i make the system run faster. 2. I installed in non-color text mode, as before, to make the system run faster. If you run into packages that dont install (packages give you errors while installing), it could mean - bad memory problems, so check your memory before installing. use memtest, i think it is it ;) btw. I used slackware because, not like you, i had no CD and i installed the old fashion way... glorious floppies. :) glad to help, -- Ami Bizamcher. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
