How do I fix this?
I think? that this is because of a prblem in libpam. You can get new copies from: http://incoming.debian.org/libpam*72-27_i386.deb Sam Hartman ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) should be able to help you get going BUT in short you'll have to do something like: reboot system. at lilo prompt type "linux init=/bin/sh" <enter> Then bring up networking (/etc/network start) Grabe the .debs from incomming. dpkg -i libpam*72-27_i386.deb sync reboot and hopefully that will fix it. You'll probably want to get sam to check what I've just said. > -Tristan- > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
