Hmmm, I see. I guess the kernel from the woody install CD is too old as well. The lifimages (as suggested in my first mail) have a more recent kernel however (2.4.19-??). So I guess netbooting is still an option. If you have an additional machine of course ;) If you don't have an additional machine, maybe this can help: http://pateam.esiee.fr/cd-images/testing. These are ISO's with more recent kernels. I assume (net)(CD)booting with the latest kernel should solve the chroot problem.
Tell me if it worked. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin-�ric Racine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "kenneth westelinck" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2002 10:45 PM Subject: Re: recovering from a failed libc6 upgrade On Wed, 27 Nov 2002, kenneth westelinck wrote: > Another solution is to chroot your /mnt. So /mnt actually becomes /. Unfortunately, that fails right away. "kernel too old" is the message I get after doing "chroot /mnt", probably because as soon as the root is changed, we start using binaries living there, but they all fail because the wrong libc6 lives there. -- Martin-�ric Racine "Kas sa tahad mind? - Nej!!! �r du en idiot?!!" http://www.pp.fishpool.fi/~q-funk/ Tallinn, Eesti; Espoo, Suomi. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
