Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Installing 9i fails - insufficient space on C: drive
Don't know about 9i but in unix 8.1.x versions I was fooled because it
used both a TEMP and TMP directory. Had allowed for the TEMP but failed
because I didn't know about the TMP. I think I found it by a closer
reading of the install manual - I had filed a TAR on it but tech support
just told me to allocate for TEMP, nothing about TMP.
