Re: HELP!!! BASH IS FSCKED!!
And again. Sorry folks.
The last thing I remember doing as root is fiddling with the sysclock
(hence a previous posting here yesterday afternoon). At about 7pm (BST) I
logged in from the console, read news and mail and logged out again.
I then got back home at 01.00 (BST), and logged back in again
I then got those errors.
The latest update is that bash has now started working again fine.
All that I did in the mean time was dpkg--audit and dpkg -l. I've changed
the root password. Although my machine now works again, I'm extremely
concerned by these events. Anyone shed any light on it?
Thanks,
Matthew
