This may be completely off-track but I've seen it cause wierd problems in the past, so worth checking - was the directory you were in when the machine crashed one that still existed as far as the file system was concerned?
To test this, try the following...
# cd /tmp # mkdir X # cd X # mv ../X ../Y # cd `pwd` bash: /tmp/X: No such file or directory #
...and then perform the test. As far as the test is concerned, the current directory is /tmp/X but, as shown above, the file system reports that the said directory doesn't exist, and it's not hard to work out that you're actually in /tmp/Y instead.
Best wishes from Riley.
