Hi. The box I have observed such a problem has 458752 MB of real memory (RAM). With this high value /sbin/init refuses to start with "Out of memory". I suspect there may be sort of (type) overflow somewhere. A corresponding part of console output below: start_init: trying /sbin/init Cannot map anonymous memory(null): Out of memory: Cannot map anonymous memoryCannot allocate memory Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: Cannot map anonymous memory(null): Out of memory: Cannot map anonymous memoryCannot allocate memory Cannot map anonymous memory(null): Out of memory: Cannot map anonymous memoryCannot allocate memory Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: ^CCannot map anonymous memory(null): Out of memory: Cannot map anonymous memoryCannot allocate memory Cannot map anonymous memory(null): Out of memory: Cannot map anonymous memoryCannot allocate memory Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: Full dmesg + remain: http://plukky.net/~pluknet/misc/ibmx5.verbosedmesg.txt This is confirmed by the fact that it started to pass multiuser (up to login) after I've reduced hw.physmem down to 8GB. Any tips are appreciated. -- wbr, pluknet
