PeterPanic Posted October 31, 2003 Report Share Posted October 31, 2003 :huh: Hi, all! When trying to boot my MDK 9.1 yesterday LILO started, I chose to run "Linux" and the graphical start (is that "Aurora") began. But a second later I get a /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: Line 44: 21 Segmentation Fault and then the Line containing grep I think. Then another segfault with egrep and then it hangs in "Booting Mandrake ..." When I press Ctrl-C it enters RL 5 or so and shows some more segfaults with grep. Is it possible that my grep is damaged? (I have an other pc with MDK 9.1 here, so could I just copy grep to a disc and boot in rescue mode and overwrite mine with the one from the disc?) What do you think? I can boot into rescue mode with my mdk CD, did fsck.ext3 on my "/" (currently only have "/", "/boot" and "swap") and it "optimized" some directories, but still has the same errors. What else could I do (in rescue mode or otherwise) to fix this? I had similar errors before on other PCs... When something hangs and the system shuts down uncleanly, it asks me if I'd like to check the FS (Hit Y within 5 secs) and when I do this it destroys files... Thanks, PeterPanic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
