However, when I did a 'ls -l' the directory had an Apr 1 2000 timestamp. I was able to do a 'mount -t proc proc /proc' and get everything working.

However, you are not alone. Be sure to manually mount proc before you shutdown. The first time I tried to reboot, the system hung because it couldn't find and pids in /proc to control the shutdown process.
