 Hi,

 after installing and SYSGENing of RSTS/E V9.6 I get the following
 error:

? Beginning RSTS/E system startup...
 88.12.07? 12:10????? Installing monitor overlays
 88.12.07? 12:10????? Mounting disks
 88.12.07? 12:10????? Assigning logical names
 88.12.07? 12:10????? Starting error logging
 ?ERRINT - ?No room for user on device at Line? 1265
 88.12.07? 12:10????? Setting system characteristics

 07-Dec-88 12:10 PM?? Starting spoolers
 ?Unable to start Print/Batch Services
 ?No room for additional jobs 

That problem can occur for a number of reasons:

1.)?? You still have SYSGEN as the currently installed .SIL

?????? (Try "INSTALL RSTS", or whatever the name of the monitor was that you
sysgen'd,
????????at the Option: <Start>??prompt)

2.)?? You don't have SWAP.SYS set to a large enough size.

?????C2 (Use the FILE option of REFRESH, and change the size of SWAP.SYS to at least 256
or 512.
??????? Later, if you need more swap space, you can use system commands to add another
swap file.)

3.)????You didn't specify a?high enough JOBMAX when you did your?sysgen.
