Oops! This is not the linux kernel problem, but the "procps" package problem.
This is probably a work-around:
1. $ apt-get source procps
2. $ cd procps-VERSION
3. edit proc/sysinfo.c
165c165
< fprintf(stderr, "Unknown HZ value! (%ld) Assume %ld.\n", h, Hertz);
---
> /* fprintf(stderr, "Unknown HZ value! (%ld) Assume %ld.\n", h, Hertz);
*/
4. $ fakeroot debian/rules binary
5. # dpkg -i ../procps_VERSION_i386.deb
6. # dpkg -i ../libproc-dev_VERSION_i386.deb
Hope this helps!
