Message-ID: <19970925125012.jtAmrQpCpCkb3ADhnQBENLEfGAqqxhtv91dY63ZH3hY@z> (raw)

	I'm trying to install Plan 9 in two distinct machines and I have received error messages. The machines are PCs. One is a Pentium 133 and other is a 486 DX4. The hard disk configurations are:

Pentium: Hard Disk IDE

Partition   Status   Type   Mbytes   Use

C:1	     A      Pri-Dos  500      17%

  2		    Non-Dos   67       2%
  3                 Non-Dos   2410    80%

 I install Disk 1 without problems, then when I go to install the set of three disks, I received the follow message: 

	An error ocurred while trying to build a Plan 9 partition table for the disc. The most likely cause is insufficient disc space.

486 DX4: Hard Disk SCSI

Partition     Status     Type         Mbytes      Use

C:1            A         Pri-DOs      251         17%

  2                      Non-Dos      885         60%
  
  3                      Non-DOs      88           6%



I install Disk 1 without problems, then when I go to install the set of three disks, I received the follows two message:

	An error ocurred executin the command /bin/disk/prep. The error was: prep 22 not enough room for boot area.

	An error ocurred while trying the build a Plan 9 partition table for the disc. The most likely cause is insufficient disc space.


The hard disks have enough space to install Plan 9 but I don't know the messages causes. 

	Thanks.

Franklin.
