I nearly locked myself out updating a server (from -6 to -8).
I booted the new kernel (single user), mounted /usr, /var and /tmp,
extracted base.tgz (excluding /rescue, fortunately), but had forgotten
to remount / rw.
After that (I interrupted tar), tar didn't work any more.
Well, I had /rescue/tar. Unfortunately, with z, it said
Shared object "liblzma.so.2" not found
Fortunately, I could /rescue/gzcat base.tgz >base.tar and tar x that.So why does something in /rescue need a shared library?
