Unimplemented SPARC system call 188



Hello,

Last night I update my unstable sparc64 machine...

The machine is running 2.4.20. Nothing works now.
It won't even run init. It just spits out a stream of Unimplemented SPARC system call 188. I have a statically linked sh that I copied from the install CD and if I boot with init=/bin/fsh (the static shell) I can get to the prompt. I can even remount the FS read only. That is about the only thing I can do. ls buss errors, bash segfaults... tcsh segfaults...

Short of starting over I'm at a loss... Has anyone else seen this? Any hints?

Sorry for the yahoo mail but the sparc64 machine is my mail host...

-Cheers,
Will Deutsch
