I have 2.4.0 running, with devfs enabled and devfsd providing
compatibility.
I've tried to clean-up as much as possible in the process of
activating devfsd, but something escapes my knowledge:
it seems that shm is now mounted by devfs in /dev/shm, instead of
being mounted by means of /etc/fstab wherever one needs it.
previously shm was reported as having a definite size (something like
8 Gigabyte ?), now it is reported as 0 (like all other pseudo fs).
And here comes apache that can't perform some operations in shm and
dies as soon as it starts:
