I've just installed MINIX on my old 486 and decided to try using a
downloaded bash binary.  However, bash seems to need too much memory, so
I dug around the docs and found that I should use chmem to allocate more
memory to the process.  However, whenever I issue the command:

    chmem +10000 bash

I get the error:

    chmem: can't open bash: Not enough core

What am I doing wrong here?  Am I even on the right track?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cordially,

Marvin
