Hello from Gregg C Levine
What are the particulars for installing Plan9? Smallest IDE drive size? Largest?
Obviously the upper limit is that of the computer's BIOS, but that's not
really relevant.

Hello from Gregg C Levine
I know that much. The install notes mention that. I meant what siz drive did can it be
installed on. I've got a few of the smaller IDE drives here. <1GB

the entire installation is definitely less than a gigabyte, including
sources.
make sure you choose kfs while installing, your fossil will fill up a
small disk rather quickly and i wouldn't advise trying to configure
its snaptimes immediately after a first install.
according to my venti the initial install was less than 650MB. it
grew to a gigabyte after 14 days of use, only after i moved
/usr/andrey from kfs to it:

Sure this doesn't have to do with fossil's bug (already solved)
did you do the check?.
