FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE The system was working fine prior to a kernel recompile where I hoped to raise the per-process memory limits. Now the kernel boots fine until it tries to run sh, which dies along with any other shell I try to run when I boot. I've booted off the 4.3 cd and told the kernel to mount my / device as /. Then I rebuilt the kernel with the original values - same problem when booting off hdd again. Help! Is there any way I can transfer the cd kernel to the hdd? Or get some kind of working kernel on the hdd? In linux I am familiar with using the boot loader to have multiple kernels - so that when you build a new one if you make a mistake you can use a default working one to boot with and return the system to a working state.
