Yes I did it, severall times ! ;(
I also made something like:
$ cd /var/log
$ rm utmp
$ touch utmp
$ cd /var/run
$ rm utmp
$ cp /dev/null utmp
$ shutdown -r now
... and it still don't work ! ;(
My main problem, I think, is the libc5 package ! I had to upgrade to an libc5
package which
hadn't that bug and so that install libc6 package, but I still not found yet a
libc6 package which
could accept my libc5 package version (5.4.33-3) ! My libc6 only accepts
(>=5.4.33-7) ! ;(
Thanks for the help.
Best regards,
