In my case, this ended up ~78xxx. No big. Just hadn't encountered a "shortage" like this in dmesg(8). I just found the answer to my question could have been found in loader(8). Thanks again, for the reply. --Chris > > > -- > Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net > Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ > On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
