Hi All,
I am trying to bring up the root file system on a PPC 405 chip using a
flavor of Montavista Linux (4.0.1) wich has linux version 2.6.10 .
As the root file system system comes up, some of the daemons throw the
following error.
Starting system log daemon: syslogd klogdpidof: invalid option -- x

.

failed (255: ).
But once I get to the linux prompt, I see

Can someone help me as to why I am seeing the pidof error?
