Hi,

I'm sending this to lfs-dev since I'm not subscribed to alfs-dev and I'm
in some sort of emergency.

I was all set up to use jhalfs to test the current lfs book, and I believe
it messed up my system. After a couple of false starts, jhalfs told me
this:



Building the system...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Building target 020-creatingtoolsdir

rm: cannot remove `/tools': Is a directory
make: *** [020-creatingtoolsdir] Error 1

        Goodbye and thank you for choosing <jhalfs>


So I (quite idiotly) did:

0[/home/miguel/heap/jhalfs/jhalfs-trunk]# rm -rf /tools


and now my system's b0rked. Watch this:

0[/bin]$ l | grep tool
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   15 Nov 18  2005 bash -> /tools/bin/bash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   14 Nov 18  2005 cat -> /tools/bin/cat
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   14 Nov 18  2005 pwd -> /tools/bin/pwd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   15 Nov 18  2005 stty -> /tools/bin/stty
0[/bin]$

Why and how did jhalfs modify my binaries in /bin?

In the meantime, if somebody could send me a static bash, I'd highly
appreciate it. I can't even compile my own bash.
