A system with less than 64 Mbytes of RAM is not recommended.</p> <h3><a name="id61746">2.3 Disk Space Usage</a></h3> <p>A minimum NT installation with networking needs 250 MB, and an additional 130 MB for the swap file. </p> <h3><a name="id60679">2.4 Installation</a></h3> <p>Normal NT installation is performed. No additional application programs are needed, such as Internet explorer or web server. Networking with TCP/IP is required. <br> Service pack 4 or later must be installed.</p> <h4>Hardware Watchdog</h4> <p>For Windows NT running on standard PCs with ISA and/or PCI bus there is a possibility to install an extension card with a hardware watchdog. </p> <p>See also the <span class="code">heart(3)</span> reference manual page in <strong>Kernel</strong>. </p> <h3><a name="id60718">2.5 Starting Erlang</a></h3> <p>On an embedded system, the <span class="code">erlsrv</span> module should be used, to install the erlang process as a Windows system service. This service can start after NT has booted. See documentation for <span class="code">erlsrv</span>.</p> </div> <div class="footer"> <hr> <p>Copyright © 1997-2012 Ericsson AB.
