I am NOT referring to the InstallLispTool of 29-Nov-83, but rather to the current InstallLispTool (26-Jan-84).  The problem is that there are 3500 taken up by diagnostics,  defaultly 1000 pages is assigned to DSK, this does not leave enough room on the disk to fetch full.sysout.  I had to reduce the allocation to DSK reformatting with Othello.'

'
This morning I tried to install on 10Mb using "carol" released installation floppy.  I was not able to have any problems.'
'
The volume configurations are '
	Diagnostics':	3500 pages'
	Dsk':		1000 pages'
	Lisp		11688 pages'
	'
	This gives a default of 9688 pages for vMem.'
	'
	The Full.sysout is about 5900 pages, and Lisp.Sysout is about 4600 pages.  '
	'
	As I recall when John Vittal and Tayloe S. went to London, they are using the 10Mb machine and with same Installation Floppy.  I was not able to locate John (He might be in Boston again), maybe Tayloe can clarify this for me.'
	'
	I must be missing something again from halvorsen.pa message.   '

	Confused one,'
