|I was trying to install the pcdist onto my clone 386DX40
|(128k cache, 4MB RAM, WD Caviar IDE hard drive).
|             ^^^^^^^
|Everything looked fine until I got into installing the last
|three floppies, and then I get a message "No physical memory".

I think I read somewhere that the minimum for plan 9 on a pc is 8 megs. So
it just looks like you're out of memory. Buy some more, or better yet, see
if anyone will give you some or at least buy it used.  There are so many 30
pin 1 meg SIMMs without a home out there; hopefully you've got SIMMs.
