Sorry for the cross-posting but I need a 'user' answer to this but I thought
that it might
be of interest to the development group as well. If it's not apologies.
I tried to install Debian 2.0 on an old Dell machine at work today, I'm afraid
I don't know
what type it was; all I can say is that the machine is a 486DX2 50. It appears
to claim
it's a Dell System 450 SE/2. The BIOS is a "Phoenix 80486 ROM BIOS PLUS 1.00
A0C"
The machine contains an Adaptec SCSI controller ( I don't know what ) but the
message
reads "Adaptec AT/SCSI BIOS version 3.20"
Unfortunately there is no way of obtaining any detailed system information as
the manuals
were lost a long time ago.
My problem is that boot after installation ( installation worked fine ) a
message floods the screen
immediately after the "INIT:version 2.75 booting" message. The message reads..
"BUG IN DYNAMIC LINKER ld.so: ../sysdeps/i386/dl_machine.h: 291:
elf_machine_rel:
Assertion `! "unexpected dynamic reloc type" failed!
I get at least fifteen of these messages and the system just stops. Pressing
<CTRL>+<ALT>+<DEL>
gets as far as the message that reads "No more processes left at this run
level" but no reboot
occurs.
I really need to get this machine running ASAP, but if this is a genuine bug
then if someone
tells me what they need and how to get it then I'll happily try.
If this isn't a bug then what am I doing wrong? I've never seen anything like
this before and have
absolutely no clues about what to do.
HELP !
