[fw: booting with lowmem on a 386]
Hi,
I'm not sure what is causing that error.
Here is the section of the 2.1 install manual that describes low
memory systems:

Hi,
You send me few weeks ago
an answer about my problem
about debian 2.2 on a 386
with 7808KB.
You have sugested me to
load debian 2.1 before with
the lowmem.bin.
I have done that but :
1) after lowmem boot ,
disk partitioning and swap on ,
when the rescue floppy is
asked I find the message :
"unable to load charset cp_437"
( or 427 maybe )
I have downloaded lowmem.bin ,
resc1440.bin and root.bin from
debian.org.
2) I am not easy with english and
I am not sure about the procedure
to use the lowmem.bin way to load
deb 2.1. Could you send me back
a short information.
Which partition for the rescue ?
Msdos I read ???? I used msdos
partition but ... I have obtained
the message.
And for other floppies ?
root and lowmem...
3 floppies ???
If I am wrong with the boot files
please join me the file with your
answer.
Thank you.
