From 6e8f43ccd0f328de046b27fc16c32e43bdf2513f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sevan Janiyan Date: Sun, 2 Oct 2016 14:15:50 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Increase minimum RAM requirement for installation to 96MB. On 9.3 & 10.3 (both amd64 builds) whilst the kernel boots & installer runs with such an amount, the installer fails when attempting to extract a set. On 11 it's not actually possible to boot the kernel with less than 96MB (amd64) or 92MB (i386). Tested using VirtualBox not actual hardware.
