to be printing will determine your spooling space
requirements. For many users, lOOk or 200k would be
adequate.
An example may be useful. Suppose you want to install
VMjPC and use the Local 3277 Session. You want two
minidisks; one of 1 megabyte and the other twice that size.
You also intend to run programs that will require a virtual
machine size of 1 megabyte. You further suppose that your
printer spooling requirements will be nearly 200k bytes.
Your disk space calculations could look something like this:
VM/PC files (installation)
Smaller minidisk
Larger minidisk
Virtual machine activity
Printer spooling activity
Disk Space Required
1,600,000
1,048,576
2,097,152
1,048,576
200,000
5,994,304
Under the assumptions of our example, about 4,000,000
bytes of space would still be available on your fixed disk for
additional printer spooling space, for DOS and for other
uses.
