Please don't write your reply upside-down (i.e. above the text to
which it is a reply).  This makes it much harder to read.

These contants are defined in

$ find  /usr/src/linux/include -type f -print | xargs fgrep -l SHMMIN 2>/dev/null
/usr/src/linux/include/asm-i386/shmparam.h

for the x86 versions of Linux.  You can modify these and then
recompile the kernel.

Note that your value for SHMMAX is 4Gb - 1 byte, and you won't be able
to set it that high.  Read the code to discover the minimum/maximum
appropriate values.
