Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: Problems porting from sun to 386bsd Date: 7 Apr 1993 03:41:19 GMT Organization: Australian National University Lines: 21 Sender: cml851@huxley.anu.edu.au (C M Lvisitor) Distribution: world Message-ID: <1ptigvINNjv1@manuel.anu.edu.au> NNTP-Posting-Host: 150.203.3.10 Hello, 1.I am trying to port an adaptive logic network program called atree to 386bsd. It compiles fine but as soon as you run it, it stops and issues the error message "out of memory". I know that without familiarity with the source code tracking such a problem down is impossible, but could someone who has some experience in both suns and 386bsd give me an idea on where to look as I am conversant in c but not too familiar with the internal workings of *nix systems. 2.Another question is that when mailing locally mail.local came up with the message "localhost: connection refused" so I found mail.local.c and in every occurance of localhost (2) replaced it with gertrude, compiled it and the messages went away. The question is have I done the right thing and if not what should have happened. 3.The third question is why cant I disklabel floppys all I get is a message device not configured from ioctl. I have run MAKEDEV fd0 fd1 and recompiled the kernel, but to no avail. Thanks for any help in advance, Robbert Hofman cml851@huxley.anu.edu.au
