Re: sysinst failing to extract misc.tgz (in anita)

[Paul Goyette <paul%whooppee.com@localhost>]

I modified my local copy of anita some time ago, with

        hard-disk size  increased from 512M to 1024M
        memory size     increased from  32M to  128M
        atf-run timeout increased from 3600 to 7200
