Cause 3: Your disk cache or RAM Disk setting is set too high in the Memory

possible setting, reduce or turn off your RAM disk, and turn on virtual
memory. Then restart the computer.

You see a message that your computer doesn’t have enough memory to use
the software.

Cause: Your computer has less RAM than is required to use Mac OS 7.6.

Solution: For memory guidelines, see “System Requirements” in Chapter 1. If
necessary, contact your Apple-authorized reseller for information about how
to purchase additional memory.

You see a message that there’s not enough disk space.

Cause: Your computer’s hard disk has less than the minimum amount of
space required to install the software.

Solution: Make more space available on your hard disk by removing some
files from the disk. Make backup copies of the files, if necessary. Then drag
them to the Trash icon and choose Empty Trash from the Special menu. You
don’t need to quit the Install Mac OS program before you remove files from
the disk.

When you see this message, some of the software you selected may have been
successfully installed. The Install Software window in the Install Mac OS
program indicates which software has already been installed.
