# Virtual Memory Alert

........The Problem........

> You don't have enough free space on your boot disk to support a swap file. Because of this, virtual memory (VM) has been disabled.

........The Solutions........

- Do nothing. The BeOS will work without virtual memory, although it may not work very well. The more RAM you have, the more pleasant your non-VM experience will be.

- Re-enable virtual memory. To re-enable VM, you can...

  - Free up some disk space by deleting some files, or...
  - Install BeOS on a larger disk.

  ...and then reboot.
