Hi Mike, you might wanna try posting this to the main list -- this is
far too on-topic for slug-chat :)

I'm not actually running debian here, but this error:

> E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room

looks a bit worrying. mmaping a file means that the file's contents are
available as a chunk of memory. One of its most common usages is to load
dynamic libraries, and I suspect that's what you're doing. Is there any
chance that some of the system libraries were corrupted by rebooting
without a shutdown or something?

Anyway, as I say, the main list will have a better idea, but I thought
that was worth mentioning.
