I did not know of this bug and I got a machine running 2.4.6. For others, here's a quick way to test if you have the bug: In /etc/inittab: # Action on special keypress (ALT-UpArrow). kb::kbrequest:/usr/bin/touch /tmp/crack_this_system_with_me then, as root obviously: telinit q Then press Alt+UpArrow and ls -la /tmp/crack_this_system_with_me If this is rw-rw-rw well, you will agree, you have the feature ... er ... the bug! Tell me this and your ip, and do nothing else, I'll repair your system :)))) More seriously, a quick fix could be, if you can't switch back 2.2.19 or go forward 2.4.7, to mv /sbin/init /sbin/good_init and put in /sbin/init a script like this, everything is untested of course: #!/bin/sh umask 022 exec /sbin/init Have fun!
