init / (idle) CPU USAGE
Hello, I just setup a new machine, And I installed 5.1 on the system. I have been using and running FreeBSD for over 3/4 years and I have never seen this problem. The question is if I killed pid #11 would init die? The process has been using 99% CPU for the past 2 days and wont stop. What is casuing this idle ghost process and cant it be stoped and can i kill it without problems. All replys will be appreciated. thanks USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND root 11 99.0 0.0 0 12 ?? RL9:27AM 509:10.58 (idle) root 10 0.0 0.0 0 12 ??

Ok so in other words the machine is not really using 99% cpu and the process is ok. Hence my loads are 0.00 Thank You, Mr. Thomas Sr. Administrator - Original Message - From: Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: James [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 6:22 PM Subject: Re: init / (idle) CPU USAGE In the last episode (Oct 03), James said: I just setup a new machine, And I installed 5.1 on the system.
