Many thanks to those who have helped me out the last couple of days...

To continue, I'm trying to install Sybase (Linux) and FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE.
I've fixed the shared memory problem by recompiling the kernel with SHMMAX
and SHMMAXPGS options that Vladimir Silyaev recommended.  The latest problem
is
when sybinit attempts to boot the server.  This is what I'm seeing...

<snip>
Running task: update the SQL Server runserver file.
Task succeeded: update the SQL Server runserver file.
Running task: boot the SQL Server.
Calling the shell with '/usr/opt/sybase/install/RUN_SYBASE >
                       /usr/opt/sybase/init/logs/tmp 2>&1 '.
waiting for server 'SYBASE' to boot...
INTERNAL ERROR: Could not locate message number '514' for product
'SQL Server' in message cache.
<snip>

The "strange" thing is, I do a "ps" and the dataserver is running and has
16MB of memory allocated and using about 7MB.

I tried to talk to the dataserver using isql -SSYBASE -Usa -P but got a
connection timeout.

On the successful side, I did configure the backup server.  I went through
the whole configuration and it booted!  Unfortunately, a message similar to

	"Warning" this process needs 1024 file descriptors but only has 512"

appeared.

So I'm wondering, where do I go now?  Am I still seeing a shared memory
problem?
Does the files descriptors offer a clue?

Thanks very much for your help.  I've attached the detailed log and error
files for your convenience.
