Recently had my system all up to date and noticed an email suggesting
that once system was using gcc-3.2 that a rebuild was in order.
Agreeing with this idea I set my machine off on its 20+ hour rebuild.
Once completed I rebooted the box and found to my horror that I was
unable to get any further into the system than run-level S, and that
once there my fstab file was not read and that the root partition was
read-only
and I can not change any of the files.
Reason to change files is due to errors produced.
Ones I am looking at now are:
/etc/rcS.d/S10mount: line 4: /etc/init.d/functions: no such file or dir
/etc/rcS.d/S10mount: line 12: evaluate_retval: command not found
running fsck
/etc/rcS.d/S10mount: line 21: evaluate_retval: command not found
fsck failed
Have looked in /etc/init.d and there is no file called functions, in
S10mount
this file is sourced.
Any suggestions for recovery would be appreciated :)
I did also notice that ... gcc-2.95.3, gcc, samba, php and xfsprogs had not
compiled
properly as directories for them still existed in /usr/src
Maybe it is just because I am new to Sourcemage but maybe it would be better
at the
end of a rebuild for a message to appear to say what was not rebuilt or
installed, although
I will now always look in /usr/src before attempting to restart machine
