Only thing I have changed is the story below. After that I recompiled the Kernel. and copied it to the right place. For all I know, this has only to do with the amount of memory installed and nothing else...............

Could you tell me how to link the " /bin/sh" to " bash" ????????????

Changing memory params
1) Change to the directory listed below and edit the shmparam.h file.

cd /usr/src/linux/include/asm
vi shmparam.h

2) A little further down is a line that says "#define SHMMAX 0x2000000." The 0x2000000 is hex for 32 megs. Change it to a value that suits you. I've bumped it up to 0x8000000, which is 134217728, or slightly above the 128 megs RAM I have installed.

With regards Peter
