[386BSD] HELP! system crashes with Kmem_malloc.Kmem_map to small

I am trying to compile X11R5 and in the process the system keeps
panicing with KMEM_MALLOC.KMEM_MAP to small! I have a 16M system
with PATCHs 1-58 except 26, 47 and 56 installed.

Questions:

1.) Could this be caused by the swap area filling up and no more virtual
    storage left?
2.) Is there anyway to see how full the swap area is! Can't seem to
    find a vmstat command
3.) Is there any system monitoring commands for 386BSD besides "PS"
4.) How come after installing the system the disk partition information
    does not label partition "B" as swap. I assume the install process
    sets  this area up as swap. I have since defined this area in my
    FSTAB as swap "/dev/as0b none swap sw 0 0" it's 10000*512 bytes in
    size.

Thanks in advance!


My configuration is as follows:

PC clone 486/50 16M/256K cache
Adaptec 1542B SCSI Host Adapter
DISK1=Quantum PRO240
DISK2=MAXTOR 213SY
386BSD 0.1 with patchs 1-58 except 26,47 and 56.
