>>An 'out of memory' diagnostic was returned by the compiler.

For cem and cpp 30000 bytes of stack ,looks like not enough 
since fsck.c is 50000 bytes. I chmemed =64000 and everything worked
If you have little ram still, maybe your ram disk should be reduced.
Use mkfs with a prototype file and make a new ram disk (mine is now 55blocks)

#busywork ***********

Spliting the group is bad, because it needlessly divides our labours
The system can and should be the same as possible from machine to machine.

I propose that ideas and code is discussed here, the refs
test and  give the best to ast and he posts weekly or biweekly 
updates to minix.  This gives people the latest to write stuff for
and permits testing and regular progress.
