Subject: What resources does it need?
As might be expected, the answer depends on what you want to
do. The kernel, the window system, and the basic applications
will run comfortably on a PC with 8MB of memory.
On the other hand, the system can grow. The installation at
Bell Laboratories includes multiprocessor SGI Challenge and
Pentium machines as CPU servers, and a 350GB Sony WORM disk
jukebox for the file server.
Is it still true that if you cannot afford to lose your data, you want to
store it on the real fileserver rather than on kfs?
If so, then home users who cannot afford to lose their data will need at
least 2 PCs to run Plan 9, and that fact should be noted in the faq.
