Installlisptool won''t let you install 7000 page sysout on 8000 page volume.  The problem is that installlisptool chops 2000 pages of the volumesize when it allocates space for the vmem,  and it wont let you specify a vmemsize before you put the sysout onto the volume.  Catch 22'

Once for all, I will use the default VMem to be the largest possible useable size (roughly about 500 pages less than your volume size).'

This will be fixed in the next release.  '

Kris, Thanks for the info.'
