Hi all, I am attempting to install FeeBSD on a Pentium 90 24MB RAM and a 1.2GB Drive. Every install I try pulls errors while downloading and unpacking files refering to being out of free space. I have used all the default settings tried both partitioning it myself and letting the auto config handle it both with the same results. Is the drive just too small?? I does not seem like it should be. Any advice for a UNIX noob would be great. BTW, I have read all the install files and what else I could find online but nothing refering to the issue I am having. The machine was running Windows 95 with no trouble at all. Jimi_l

Hi Jimi_l, 1.2GB should be plenty. Partition the drive.. give /usr plenty (ie: most) of space. Select a custom install, and then goto Distributions. Select "Minimal", then go into "custom" and select "man" (for the manual pages (you can skip this if you dont want the docs)). This should give you a working system, although with few bells and whistles. You will probably want to install a GUI, and a few other programs. You should (if i remember correctly) about 1gb left, so you have plenty of space to install what you need. -- Ramsey Brenner osdisc.com support
