HI All, I am running kernel 2.6.23. And I see something strange that I can not find an answer for it: # ls -al 1/fd dr-x------ 2 root root 0 Jan 5 12:23 . dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 0 Jan 5 12:22 .. lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Jan 5 12:23 0 -> /dev/console (deleted) lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Jan 5 12:23 1 -> /dev/console (deleted) lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Jan 5 12:23 2 -> /dev/console (deleted) >From above list, the standard in/out and error for init processes have links to "/dev/console (deleted)". Does anyone knows what the "deleted" means here?
