      1  1.3  chopps NetBSD/amiga 1.1 runs on any amiga that has a 68020 or better CPU
      2  1.1  chopps with some form of FPU and MMU.  The minimal configuration requires
      3  1.1  chopps 4M of RAM and about 65M of disk space.  To install the entire system
      4  1.1  chopps requires much more disk space, and to run X or compile the system,
      5  1.1  chopps more RAM is recommended.  (4M of RAM will actually allow you to
      6  1.1  chopps compile, however it won't be speedy.  X really isn't usable on a
      7  1.1  chopps 4M system)
      8  1.1  chopps 
      9  1.1  chopps Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
     10  1.1  chopps 	partition:	advise,	with X,	needed,	with X
     11  1.1  chopps 	root (/)	15M	15M	10M	10M
     12  1.1  chopps 	user (/usr)	65M	100M	45M 	80M
     13  1.1  chopps 	swap		----- 2M for every M ram -----
     14  1.1  chopps 	local (/local)	up to you
     15  1.4     jtc 
     16  1.1  chopps 
     17  1.1  chopps As you may note the recommended size of /usr is 20M greater than
     18  1.2  chopps needed. This is to leave room for a kernel source and compile tree
     19  1.1  chopps as you will probably want to compile your own kernel. (GENERIC is
     20  1.1  chopps large and bulky to accommodate all people).
     21  1.1  chopps 
     22  1.4     jtc If you only have 4M of fast memory, you should make your swap partition
     23  1.4     jtc larger, as your system will be doing much more swapping.
     24  1.4     jtc
