Just curious..
Whenever they reboot the 3b2/400 here, any attempt to do /etc/whodo or ps
results in '/etc/ps_data: file does not exist' (which, after rtfm'ing, I
found out was the internal data structure file used by ps, whodo, et al);
my question is, what is it about rebooting that wipes this file out? To fix
this can ya simply touch the file so that something exists again? How is it
recreated?
Thanks..
