This can only happen if, because of the various options in your kernel, consumed the entire 256MB of virtual address space. That would be quite incredible if true. It appears that you must have a tremendous amount of junk in your kernel and have a variety of kernel config parameters highly mistuned. In any case, your machine CAN NOT WORK correctly with NMBCLUSTERS=8192. A setting of 8192 can consume up to 16MB of memory just for the network buffers. Since that's all the memory your machine has, well, I think you see the problem. -DG
