Hi, any help from anyone much appreciated.

Problem:
Trying to Install Openserver 5 Desktop system, and eventually getting a
Notice.ram: No space on device on device 31/50, repeated 3 times, then
/ramFS/instdir/iqm/iqm terminated by signal 8

?????

My stuff:
Pentium 133, 32Mb EDO Ram, 2.0 MB WD EIDE drive, 2.5 MB WD EIDE drive,
4xEIDE CD-ROM drive...  ATI Graphics Pro Turbo 2Mb.....  Drives using LBA
mode... Hard drives both on primary EIDE controller, CD-ROM on secondary...

I get partway through the install process until just after selecting time
zone, then continue and get the messages above, and forced to re-boot....

I have Win95, NT, and Linux on now, and am wanting to install SCO
Openserver into replace my Linux system....  

PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I have had problems with drives using LBA mode.  Turned that off, and all
went well.

Regards,

Stevie

Okay your problem if that you have LBA on and have 128 heads defined.  As
of now SCO only supports 64 heads LBA.

There is a patch I found when looking on how to install the free UNIX
from SCO.. Actualy its not on SCO's web site but from a link off of SCO's
site.

Hope this help
