Please check $LD_LIBRARY_PATH and /etc/ld.so.conf, and make sure you
don't have old versions of glibc installed in any of the directories
mentioned there.  It might be useful if you could show us the output of
"ldd /bin/sh", as well.

p.

Thanks Philip

Actually this isnt a debian bug, it seems to be some kernel bug.
This happened to be on every machine of ours running 2.5 kernels and no others. I rebooted to 2.4 on some of them and tried the upgrade and everything went fine.

Sorry bout that!
