OOPS! INSUFFICIENT HARDWARE TO CONTINUE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm sorry to say that you cannot install NOS onto
anything less than a hard disk. Some NOS versions
can be modified to run in a limited form from floppy
disk but this installation program is not written
with such limited installations in mind.
The minimum hard disk drive capacity required is 10
megabytes. NOS itself takes very little but
requires reasonable disk access to store and
retrieve temporary files etc.
I do know of people who use poorly configured
systems but they certainly don't get the full
enjoyment from the hobby because their computers
cannot cope. They are always the ones who are not
impressed with TCP/IP!
This is one side of the hobby that requires some
investment. You can't do it on a shoestring...
Well, maybe two but not one! hi...
Contact me if you really need a NOS that is floppy
based. Send an S.A.E. with a formatted floppy disk,
with all the details that you would need to fill in
the installation screen and I'll produce a NOS disk
for you. I'd hate to see anyone go without just
because they couldn't afford a hard disk.
