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
