[Sbcl-devel] mmap trouble in Fedora Core 5 (VMWare)

[John W. <jjw...@ya...>]

I'm having some trouble getting sbcl-0.9.18-x86-linux to run in Fedora
Core 5 (FC5) under Windows XP VMWare:

--------------------
[wiseman@dhcppc4 ~]$ sbcl
mmap: wanted 50327552 bytes at 0x5000000, actually mapped at 0xb4df2000
ensure_space: failed to validate 50327552 bytes at 0x05000000
(hint: Try "ulimit -a"; maybe you should increase memory limits.)

[wiseman@dhcppc4 ~]$ setarch i386 sbcl
mmap: wanted 50327552 bytes at 0x5000000, actually mapped at 0xb4df2000
ensure_space: failed to validate 50327552 bytes at 0x05000000
(hint: Try "ulimit -a"; maybe you should increase memory limits.)
--------------------

Any ideas?  Anyone else using this configuration successfully?

I've allocated about 1.5 GB RAM to the virtual machine.  SELinux is
disabled.  I'm using the pre-built SBCL from sbcl.org.

Some system info:
