I migrated a machine that includes a big ass seagate drive from 2.2.5 to
2.2.6 and it won't fsck it at boot time!  I can fsck it fine manually but
check out rc croaking on fsck'ing it:

(ahc0:5:0): "SEAGATE ST423451W 0013" type 0 fixed SCSI 2
sd2(ahc0:5:0): Direct-Access 22130MB (45322644 512 byte sectors)
...
cannot alloc 5314561 bytes for typemap
/dev/rsd2s1: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rsd2s1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
Automatic file system check failed... help!
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:

I can fsck it then (or control-d out of single-user) w/o any complaint.  I
modified login.conf like this to give rc the same limits as root:

# Settings used by /etc/rc 
#
daemon:\
        :coredumpsize=infinity:\
        :datasize=infinity:\
        :maxproc=infinity:\
        :memoryuse=infinity:\
        :memorylocked=infinity:\
        :openfiles=infinity:\
        :stacksize=infinity:\
        :tc=default:

but no joy.  I can hack up rc to skip fsck'ing it just to make it
rebootable but, damn, I really don't want to do that.  So um, what to do
next?
