help, mind lock, i'm running out of ideas fast

["Bob Castleberry" <castlebb@cuinc.org>]

Paging all gurus, paging all gurus, I have this box and it has debian
woody on it.  The box is not doing anything in /proc (except it keeps
the routing table now) so when you do a ps or top or shutdown it just
sits and hangs.  I've recompiled to kernel 2.4.16 (latest 2.4 that will
take lids) because I thought it would help, nope, no luck.  I forced an
apt-get reinstall of base-files with no avail.  AFAIK proc is pretty
much a virtual part of the file system controlled by the kernel.  Any
help would be more than appreciated.  Even on google I'm not finding
much on how proc really works.  Thanks.
