Bug#483888: linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-686: Kernel panic after upgrade on loading libcrypt.so

[Witold Baryluk <baryluk@smp.if.uj.edu.pl>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-686
Severity: important


On dom0 and/or domU with linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-686
kernel panics with this message:

# grep boot/ /etc/xen/webtest.cfg
kernel  = '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-6-xen-686'
ramdisk = '/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-6-xen-686'
# xm create -c webtest.cfg
....

Freeing unused kernel memory: 148k freed
/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
# 

domU have /lib/tls/libcrypt.so.1 file, and with 2.6.18-5-xen-686 it works.


The same message is when starting dom0, machine
is rebooting after kernel panic, and loops forever
(/boot/grub/menu.list is updated automaticly after update).
