Package: base Severity: normal Hi,
I've seen this error while booting for a while now and I thought it's time to investigate if there's anyone having the same issue and maybe there's a solution to it? At the end of init's System boot scripts (rcS.d) I allways see the following glibc error: *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x0804f77b *** I found at least 1 reference to (exactly) this same error on an Italian debian list but couldn't make chocolate of the discussion. The error has been there for a while now (couple of months) and survived several custom kernel builds. This makes me suspect it's in one of Debian's executables, maybe init itself? I just checked the timestamp on my /sbin/init and it's from feb 2006, so the error is older than this version of init. Either the error is still there in the source, or another binary/library is responsible for this. Since it's during the boot process, for me it's hard to find out who's responsible. The last 3 scripts in rcS.d are: S71xserver-xorg -> ../init.d/xserver-xorg S75sudo -> ../init.d/sudo S99stop-bootlogd-single -> ../init.d/stop-bootlogd-single stop-bootlogd-single is not (or hardly) used because I have BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=No. The error also occurs when I do single user mode. It's the last thing I see before the root password question. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
