.Nx*M
|
|
\*V runs on a TT030, Falcon, Hades and MilanI.
|
|
An FPU is not required.
|
|
The minimum amount of RAM required is 4 MB.
|
|
On the Hades, only the Tseng PCI
|
|
VGA cards (ET4000/ET6000/ET6100) are supported in the \*V release.
|
|
When an unsupported video card is present, you can use
|
|
.Nx
|
|
with a serial console only.

Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
|
|

|
.It Partition Ta Suggested Ta +\ X Ta Needed Ta +\ X
|

Anything else is up to you!

.Pp
|
|
In addition of the rule of thumb for the swap size mentioned below, you
|
|
probably want to make sure that the size of the swap partition does not
|
|
drop below 20 MB (30 MB for systems with X).
|
|
Another item is the add-on packages.
|
|
You might want 20-30M (or more) in
|
|
.Pa /usr/local
|
|
(or added to
|
|
.Pa /usr )
|
|
to store packages from the
|
|
.Nx
|
|
package system.
|
|
As you may note the recommended size of
|
|
.Pa /usr
|
|
is 125 MB greater than needed.
|
|
This is to leave room for a kernel source and compile tree
|
|
as you will probably want to compile your own kernel.
