I'm in the process of setting up a new server running kernel
2.0.30. The kernel compiles and runs fine. Look at the first two
lines in the syslog at bootup. Is this something to be concerned
about? Never noticed it before but looking on three other machines,
all running same kernel, uptime several days, the same message
is displayed. Kernel 2.0.29 does not log this message.
