I put in 128MB of ram on a 2.2.2RELEASE box. If I dont change the kernel, it runs fine, but sees only 64MB ram. If I put in the maxmem= line and recompile the kernel, it sees the 128MB, but after the device probes, when /bin/sh is invoked to run rc it craps out with an error message saying /bin/sh aborted while running /etc/rc , and gives me the option to press enter for a shell - I press enter and it aborts - I cant get a shell. I had to reboot the other kernel. Any ideas where to look? Is this just a 2.2.2 problem? I have 2.1 and 2.1.5R boxes running news with this at 128MB and they are fine = so Im kinda stumped.
