Whenever I try to start the init script for process accounting I get
the following error:
Mar 27 00:02:02 ccs kernel: kernel BUG at acct.c:169!
Mar 27 00:02:02 ccs kernel: invalid operand: 0000
Mar 27 00:02:02 ccs kernel: CPU: 0
Mar 27 00:02:02 ccs kernel: EIP: 0010:[acct_file_reopen+8/208]
Not tainted
Mar 27 00:02:02 ccs kernel: EFLAGS: 00010246
The system doesn't go down, but is there any way to fix this?
Thanks.
