I saw this happen on one of my boxes a few weeks ago (uptime currently
shows 31 days, which sounds about right). I have a suspicion that init was
upgraded, but the new version of init didn't safely replace the running
version. Other than that, I have no ideas. I believe I power-cycled the
box. It's been fine since.
I've been running one of the 2.4 (2.4.17 or 2.4.18) kernels from Woody. I
think the box's uptime was pretty high (it had been going for a few months,
I think).
