Hello everybody,

I have the following problem:

1. host system: Debian squeeze
    uname -na
    Linux vitez0 2.6.32-5-vserver-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Jan 12 05:05:13 UTC
2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

2. guest system was rsync-ed from old server, it contains RedHat 9
32bit instance

3. guest starts ok (mysql, apache, postfix...), ps command (and top)
segfaults when
    it looks into /proc/meminfo.

I have tried to limit memory - cflags VIRTMEM - rlimits/rss 200000,
it didn't help. I cannot list processes in a vserver.

Best regards
Petar Hitij
