I'm still trying to install Sybase (for Linux) on FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE. My latest problem seems to be my inability to allocate a large, contiguous chunk of physical memory. The Sybase documentation says I need about 15MB to load the Sybase kernel, and I quote... "For SQL Server to run, the operating system kernel must be configured to allow allocation of a shared memory segment at least as large as the SQL Server total memory parameter, which defaults to 15MB (7500 2K pages)." How does one go about this in FreeBSD? BTW, I have 48MB RAM. Thank you VERY much. -- Doug Poland dpoland@execpc.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
