(Debian glibc maintainers: this message is re: bug#321724. Does there need to be a kernel version >= 2.4.27 restriction on i386 when upgrading to libc6 2.3.5? Thank you.) Hi Joe, Please see http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2005/08/msg00779.html. You appear to be running a kernel that's way too old for the new glibc, so you should upgrade it somehow. We cannot support the 2.4.18-bf kernels anymore; they are from Woody, and you are skipping a release revision upgrading from Woody to Etch/Sid. Therefore I'm closing this bug, but see below. A possible way to get your system unhosed cleanly is to boot off a KNOPPIX CD, mount your root and boot partitions, and install something like kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686 or kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686. Then reboot, and things should work. Please contact me personally (joshk@triplehelix.org) if you need further assistance getting your system working again. -- Joshua Kwan
