Missing . at end of line, but more important: How do you expect user to answer this?! I mean, can they put 0 there and expect kernel to work? If not, you should disallow that config. And you shoudl really explain how much memory is needed... and perhaps mention that size is in bytes? -- (english) http://www.livejournal.com/~pavelmachek (cesky, pictures) http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/picture/horses/blog.html
