Hola~ Okay, I used apt-get to get a new version of libc6. The version has a script that is installed as a user file, so I get a "Do you want to accept the package maintainer's version" where "No" is the default. I blindly say no, libc6 then fails to configure.
So, I force the removal of it and try to run apt-get to reinstall it. apt-get won't run. The kernel then panics. Now, the machine won't boot. I'm not saying removing libc6 was a smart idea. I want to know what to do to get my machine back? I've got a boot floppy that I'm hoping works (it's at home and I'm at work as I type this). Assuming I can boot the machine, is it possible to recover to a point where I can install the latest version of libc6??? How do I cut my losses at this point???
