[comp.sys.sun] Sun 4 install headache

FAUCONNE@FRSIM51.BITNET (10/23/89)

Hi to you all Sun-wizards,

Being a VAX/VMS system manager, I'm totally new to the Sun world and I
have to install a Sun 4/110 and a diskless SparcStation 1. So please
forgive my probably naive question.

I struggled a long time with the disk partitioning issues but now my Sun4
system is running and I have to set up Lucid Common Lisp on it.  I did so,
everything was extracted OK from the tape but now I get:

"Cannot obtain enough heap space from the operating system to start"

whenever I try to launch the Lisp executable.

I can't find any explanation about this message, neither in the SunOS
manuals, nor in the Lisp manuals, so I'm really stuck. Can someone give me
some hint on what's going wrong ? Some sort of process quota somewhere ?
The machine has 16 Mb of RAM, this should be sufficient to run at least
one Lisp environment !
