I think it's fsck which > runs out of memory. I have no idea what has changed and how to The "daemon" class in login.conf is supposed to control what limits are given to things run out of rc. I found that modifying "daemon" was ineffective for the fsck problem. I stuck a "csh -c limit" line into rc just before the fsck so the current limits would be printed during boot. I eventutally just changed the "default" class. Tom
