Hi i am running dsl on a usb stick. When I run the find command i get an error.
This is a cut down example of the problem;

#find / -name "*.txt"
/ramdisk/usr/local/firefox/defaults/profile/extensions/installed-extensions.txt
/ramdisk/usr/local/firefox/res/cmessage.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/changelog.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/stats.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/test.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/.beaver/wordfile.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/.mozilla/firefox/t7fnqowa.default/cookies.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/.mozilla/firefox/t7fnqowa.default/signons.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/.mozilla/firefox/t7fnqowa.default/extensions/installed-extensions.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/symptoms.txt
/ramdisk/home/dsl/.dillo/bm.txt
find: unable to open `/proc/888/fd': No such file or directory
find: unable to open `/proc/892/fd': No such file or directory

As you can see the last two lines are complaining about a /proc/ directory any help would be much appreciated.

No trouble. They're just some virtual symlinks to some nonexistent devices, so you can just ignore those errors.
