| INIT: cannot fork, retry
| Problem: block on freelist at 00000000 isn't free
| Problem: block on freelist at 00000000 isn't free

| I can log in, but cannot issue any commands, even to reboot or logout.
| Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
Are you able to boot into single user mode? ("linux single" if you
