lvm: error whilst loading shared libraries

[Glyn Astill <glynastill@yahoo.co.uk>]

Hi Guys,

I've just had an attempt at upgrading a machine from lenny to squeeze, however this machine as an lvm root volume.

Upon booting I now see the message:

"lvm: error whilst loading shared libraries: libgcc_s.so.1: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory"

I'm guessing I'm missing some dependancy here, so far I can only boot to the initramfs userspace. Any ideas how I can move forward here?


I followed a "guide" at the url below on this machine that isn't vital, however I'm beginnig to wish I'd not bothered following that advice now.
