4.5-RELEASE

I just ran dd on two 40GB  to backup the main HD-1 to HD-2. While running
top to watch the dd, I noticed a "zombie" appeared listed at the summary in
of processes. Got 54 processes, 1 running and that 1 zombie. Never seen it
before. How can I find that zombie and what does it mean...????
