I recently recompiled my kernel and I am getting the following message during boot (see the "no socket drivers loaded" message below):
... blah blah blah ... NET4: Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for NET4.0 IP Protocols: ICMP, UDP, TCP, IGMP IP: routing cache hash table of 4096 buckets, 32Kbytes TCP: Hash tables configured (established 32768 bind 65536) NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0. -> ds: no socket drivers loaded! kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. ... blah blah blah ... At first, I thought it might be a missing driver or something similar. That is the only thing Googling turned up. However, after boot, almost everything seems to work normally; that is, Apache and SSH start normally and I can SSH in and pull up web pages. In addition, dmesg seems to indicate that the eepro100 driver detects my devices OK. (See below my sig for the dmesg output.) The only symptom I've discovered is the top segfaults. If I boot into an earlier kernel, no segfault. I should note I'm also getting a kernel "oops" during boot and the oops trace mentions the function "Trace; c01f8656 <uptime_read_proc+86/180>" so that may be responsible to the top behavior as well. I don't even know where to start to get to the bottom of this. Is the message an error? Completely benign? Something in between? Any suggestions?
