As I recall, as a single-user machine, 2MB was no problem. Decently

One of the challenges I had then was my largest
PDP-11 at home was a
11/24 with 2MB of RAM.
I'm wondering how 2.9BSD was with ~1MB of RAM, but say ~40MB of disk. I have a
machine I play with from time to time that's x86 + 892MB of RAM + 40MB disk and was
wondering if it would be worth it to try to adjust the V7ish port I kinda sorta have to it
to work with 2.9BSD...
