I'll add information on my failure to upgrade to libc6. Sorry, libc6 is already the newest version 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 32 not upgraded. 3 packages not fully installed or removed. Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used. Setting up libc6 (2.1.3-1) ... Current default timezone: 'US/Pacific'. Local time is now: Tue Feb 8 16:20:08 PST 2000. Universal Time is now: Wed Feb 9 00:20:08 UTC 2000. Run 'tzconfig' if you wish to change it. mount: devpts already mounted or /dev/pts busy mount: according to mtab, none is already mounted on /dev/pts dpkg: error processing libc6 (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 32
As far as I can tell, this problem is due to the new /etc/init.d/devpts.sh. laminaria:/home/kevin# /etc/init.d/devpts.sh mount: devpts already mounted or /dev/pts busy mount: according to mtab, none is already mounted on /dev/pts laminaria:/home/kevin# echo $? 32 laminaria:/home/kevin# mount /dev/hda2 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro,errors=remount-ro) proc on /proc type proc (rw) /dev/hda5 on /usr type ext2 (rw) /dev/hda6 on /var type ext2 (rw) /dev/hda7 on /home type ext2 (rw) /dev/hdc on /cdrom type iso9660 (ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev) none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) Is it necessary for the following command to succeed in order for libc6 to be installed: mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts -ogid=5,mode=620 -- Kevin Dalley [EMAIL PROTECTED]
