I rebooted : my freebsd machine and I keep getting this error " out of file descriptors ", : after the kernel is trying to " changing root device to wd0s1a ". I had this problem when I first installed FreeBSD, my problem was that I had a /etc/rc.conf and a /etc/defaults/rc.conf, which was making things loop again and again till the machine ran out of FDs. At least, I think that was the problem.. When I fixed my RC files properly, it worked perfectly.... Hope this helps. : Does anybody have an idea how I could fix this ?
