Hi all, I have a server that I did a fresh install of 7.3 on. I then proceeded to use up2date to get all the update rpms installed. I had the system running fine for a week but this morning I get all kinds of craziness. "ls" and many other dynamically linked programs give a segmentation fault. However, "dir" will run. "more" faults but "less" doesn't.
The list goes on and on. Thinking I had bad memory, I swapped memory with memory that was in a working server. Now when I reboot, I get a message "unable to umount initrd" and then the system starts crapping all over itself with messages from the shell scripts dying on commands they can't execute. The only things that have changed on the system in a week was the installation of the latest IMAP rpm and redhat-gcc3.1-i386 package. Amazingly, the server eventually comes up but is pretty crippled. I can bring up the two NICs with ifconfig but most services croak when you try and start them. Could the gcc package have corrupted some system shared libraries? The IMAP package seems to work ok even in the systems current state. Any ideas on what is happening here? Or better yet, how to resolve it? Thanks in advance.
