Strange problem
OK, folks. I have a stumper here. An associate has a machine that was
upgraded to unstable in the last few days. The machine was rebooted today,
and came up in a very strange state. No users could log in, only root, and
things like ps, w, and top wouldn't work. I was called, got in via ssh,
and finally had enough sense to run 'mount'. It looks like /proc and /
were exactly the same, which is impossible. I unmounted and remounted
/proc by hand, started up the utils that didn't start, checked things out
the best I could, and rebooted again. Same thing. I've gone through
everything I can think of remotely. I can't figure this one out. Has anyone
else ever seen something like this?
