Try to log into another VC and: ----------------------------------------------- Welcome to Linux 2.1.124. wolverine login: ds /bin/login: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/login: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/login: can't load library 'libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't load library 'libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't load library 'libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't map '/lib/libc.so.5' /bin/sh: can't load library 'libc.so.5' Unable to load interpreter INIT: Id "c3" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes -------------------------------------- The system remained responsive (however I can say that it had the same behaviour some kernel releases ago) but I wasn't able to run anything I could switch to the VC running leak an press ^C. The system is ok, I logged in, run xinit and I'm using netscape to write this. Im starting to have doubts if the patch was applied correctly, but I applied the patch, ran make dep and make bzImage. The timestamps seems correct and the image was created ok. I'm not sure what's hapenning... Is this the expected behaviour? Am I doing something stupid? I will do a few more tests and if I find anything usefull I will report it.
