|

|Hi folks,
|

Hi

|I tried to install FreeBSD 4.9 on a computer with
|a 4 GB drive, but it killed the kernel when it
|got a swap file error.
|

I have it installed on a 4GB drive.

|I put in an 8 GB drive an everything went smoothly.
|

Perhaps your 4GB drive had bad sectors?

|Any ideas on how to avoid error when installing
|to smaller drives?
|
|By the way, I've been refining some notes of mine
|and consolidated them into a procedure to install
|FreeBSD.  Your constructive comments would be
|appreciated:
