Re: minivend fails to install

["Bart Karelsen" <bart@clickpoint.nl>]

I just received a message from my provider. They asked what is the minimum
memory to install and run minivend.

Currently I have 4096 kbytes.

Does anyone know what the minimum amount of memory is to run minivend on a
virtual server.

Thanks,

Bart
