[comp.lang.smalltalk] Smalltalk/V on a 1M Mac+?

mark@obi-wan.ACA.MCC.COM (Mark Scheevel) (05/30/89)

I cannot get Smalltalk/V to boot up on my stock 1M Mac+: it stops
somewhere in the middle of initialization and reports that there is
not enough memory available.  The manual claims that it will run on a
1M machine running at least System 4.2 (I believe, the manual's at
home right now).  I'm running System 6.0.2 and UniFinder, and I have
removed all DA's, INIT's and cdev's except for the basic system
things.  Is 6.0.2 simply too big, or are there some tricks I can try?
Or have I just accelerated the schedule for my memory upgrade?  Has
anyone else had any success with this configuration?

Thanks for any tips,

Mark

According to Digitalk, Smalltalk/V for the Macintosh requires at least
1.5 Meg of RAM to run.  So it sounds like tyou need a mem ory upgrade
to get off the ground.  It's a shame that they don't put up an alert 
telling you how much how much you need to run.
