after booting a CentOS 4.2 system
I have a bunch of zombies...
root 2828 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Z 14:41 0:00 [chvt]
<defunct>
My read from googling this is chvt stems from something that involves a
shell.
They ***may*** have been created from my attempts to start mysqld which
isn't working (I will start another thread) but no efforts to kill them
off are working...
[root@srv1 certs]# kill 2828
[root@srv1 certs]# kill -9 2828
[root@srv1 certs]# ps aux|grep 2828
root 2828 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Z 14:41 0:00 [chvt]
<defunct>
How do I clean this up?
