FreeBSD nomis.simon-shapiro.org 4.3-20010522-STABLE FreeBSD 4.3-20010522-STABLE #10: Thu Jun 14 22:14:16 EDT 2001     root@:/usr/src/RELENG_4/src/sys/compile/NOMIS-smp  i386

>Description:
Regardless of the swap_pager problem (which apppears new since 4.2),
the kernel will panic immediately after mounting the root fs.
It appears to have a NULL poiner passed to in_pcballoc.
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot any FreeBSD 4.2 and above on a machine with lots of memory.
>Fix:
none :-(
