Hi,
I am trying to install the TeX distribution, and i get this error message 
when I did a "make all" in the TEX3.141 directory.

The error messages are:

cd mf; MFPOOL=.; export MFPOOL; \
make bases="mf.base cmmf.base" localmodes='modes' bases
echo ${MFINPUTS}

./inimf 'plain; input modes; dump'
This is METAFONT, C Version 2.71 (INIMF)
(/usr/local/lib/mf/macros/plain.mf
Preloading the plain base, version 2.7: preliminaries,
basic constants and mathematical macros,
macros for converting from device-independent units to pixels,
macros and tables for various modes of operation,
macros for drawing and filling,
Runaway definition?
currentpen:=(EXPR0)yscaled.aspect_ratio;pen_lft:=xpart ETC.
! METAFONT capacity exceeded, sorry [main memory size=3001].
l.394   pen_bot:=(
		ypart penoffset right of currentpen)_o_;
Transcript written on plain.log.
