>Description:
When rebooting after installing on twin 4GB drives,
fsck fails either with an unknown inconsistency error, or fails
with the error "Can not allocate 4752002 bytes for lncntp". This
occurs whether I use the drive geometry as supplied by segate during
install (FreeBSD Install complains that the geometry is wrong), or
during the install when a small DOS partition is used to force FreeBSD's
idea of drive geometry. Often, machine will complain of other "out of
swap space" or VM errors after several boot attempts. Trouble partitions range
from 1.5GB to 2.0GB.

	

>How-To-Repeat:
Reinstall OS and try again.
