Re: DANGEROUS ?? help needed
Hi,
I haven't discovered yet what happend to the symlink. I may have a bad
disk or the file utilities are corrupted.
I tried to compile a new kernel 2.4.1 and 2.4.2 but when I try to
install the modules some of the directories made as files!!
make modules
make modules_install
make -C kernel modules_install
make[1]: Entering directory `/export/src/kernel-source-2.4.1/kernel'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `modules_install'.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/export/src/kernel-source-2.4.1/kernel'
make -C drivers modules_install
make[1]: Entering directory `/export/src/kernel-source-2.4.1/drivers'
make -C block modules_install
make[2]: Entering directory `/export/src/kernel-source-2.4.1/drivers/block'
mkdir -p /lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/block/
mkdir: `/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel' exists but is not a directory
make[2]: *** [_modinst__] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/export/src/kernel-source-2.4.1/drivers/block'
make[1]: *** [_modinst_block] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/export/src/kernel-source-2.4.1/drivers'
make: *** [_modinst_drivers] Error 2
and
file /lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel: file: read failed (Is a directory).
e2fsck -n -v doesn't report anything unusual.
I may need to reinstall the system afterall.
I chechked what packages I have isnatlled and found some glibc
packages. Do they exist or just made for convenient upgrading?
dpkg -l '*glibc*'
