Howdy. I'm getting pretty frustrated with FBSD 5.0. Somehow I've managed to goof up the system. It started after I built a custom kernel. After rebooting into the new kernel I start getting all sorts of cannot fork errors. One specific one is "/etc/rc.devfs cannot fork: resource temporarily unavailable".
The only thing I did was comment out the 486 and 586 cpu sections as well as the floppy drive. I thought at first it was because of the addition of the IPFIREWALL options. Because when the new kernel boots I cannot login (cannot fork: resource temporarily unavailable). I recopied the GENERIC kernel to my custom kernel made NO changes to the GENERIC kernel, built it, installed it and rebooted. Still no login (cannot fork: resource temporarily unavailable). So I reinstalled. Then made a new kernel. Still no login (cannot fork: resource temporarily unavailable). So I checked /etc/rc.devfs. I saw nothing worth noting in that file. 98% of it is commented out. I'm seriously ready to give this thing the fork alright. But I do not want to damage my nice silverware. Why is this thing not forking? I do not even know where to continue my troubleshooting now.
