- This problem is due to a lack of shared memory configured in the Kernel
- rather than a OS version problem. The fix is to add more shared memory
- with a line something like this in your kernel config file. e.g.
-
- options SHMSIZE=2000 # allocate 2MB of shared memory
-
- I trust you have all the sysV IPC stuff turned on as well (semaphores etc).
