Help; apt-get kills system, ifup broken..
Help.
I am running Debian 2.2, with upgrade to Woody from debian.org via
FTP.
I have been running well for over 5 months without reboot(!) or
maintenance.
I went to fetch a new package, and my system decided it wanted to get 108
MB of updates. It failed on a bunch of them, I tried again, and again,
and then a force (-f) option as suggested by apt-get.
I recovered Perl ("apt-get --fix-missing install perl-base
perl"), but networking is still goofed up.
Notably, ifup fails:
ifup /etc/network/interfaces Function not implemented
Could not read interfaces file:
/etc/networks/interfaces
Of course, the file is there, readable (544), and fine.
Any help on how to recover this?
Thanks.
