Some intruder broke in (cracked in) debian 2.0 system. Now I can use it but I cannot shut down the system (when I type shutdown -h now or shutdown -r now I get the following message: (bad, not nice word) While hacking kernel... and the system is not going to shutdown. I used the button 'reset' to exit the system.
The following directories are empty /etc/init.d /var/log And may be more.
I can use dselect to install again the basic system and so on but I found only /dists/debian2.2 but not /dists/debian2.0 I think I cannot upgrade the system to debian2.2 because it's broken but probably I could install the removed packages.
I have installed many programs in the system and they seem to work
You think ?? Many commands, even simple ones like "ls" or "cp" can be replaced by versions that still perform those basic functions, but also do much more (bad stuff).
so It would be nice not to install everything from scratch.
Could you please someone help me?
Do a 'dpkg --get-selections' to get a list of your installed programs. Back up your home dir. Reformat and re-install. That's the only fail-safe way of being sure everything that this cracker could have done is gone.
