Well as anyone who has noticed my messages knows...im a new convert to debian and I _HAD_ a working 486sx/25 going./...untill about 5 mins ago good thing I have 2 PCs on my desk... right now only 2 things work... on tty8 I have a telnet session...which is setup in inittab (it telnets to this host respawning each time it disconnects) which is open...and top on tty12 thats it for your pleaser here is what I see on tty1 : /sbin/getty: can't load library 'libc.so.5' /sbin/getty.... INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minites --end-- all of the tty's with gettys on them do that now...isn't it um...cute? yes...I destroyed libc5 heres the story... I need samba....the samba package I got said it needed libc6...so I tried to install libc6 it said libc5 was the problem and it couldn't oinstall... so rather than thinking...I found the dpkg options to tell it to remove libc5...and in an expediant fashion...which it happily did then I found I could do nothing...wlel no..I could "cd" and "echo *" to emulate ls and I could logout can I save this system? I have a boot floppy..and all my original 8 debian install disks... any suggestions? -Steve
