Russ,
Thanks for replying. Indeed it's 144 meg.. or 128
if the onboard is not recognized.
My floppy image doesn't appear to have a plan9.ini file... "none found"
That's the last message before the °use dma..."
my boot looks like this...
24M memory: 11M kernel data, 12M user, 77M swap
kfs....version....time
init starting /bin/rc
/bin/dos/srv: serving #s/dos
rc (boota:) : null list in concatenation
rc (boota:) : null list in concatenation
cp: can't sta /n/a:/plan9.ini: 'n/a/plan9.ini doesn't exist'
I am in the textonly install and the problem occurs at the end as I try to
locate and mount the distribution archive.. shortly after 16%
" out of physical memory ...no swap configured...
Can I configure swap prior to this ...?

The max...2x64 + on board 16.....= 144K
Can't it swap?
Not really, no. But 128M (it may not recognize the 16)
should be fine. You might try setting kernelpercent=20
in plan9.ini on a boot floppy.
(If you really meant 144K and not 144M,
then good luck getting the kernel into memory. ;-)
