Hi folks,
I'm kinda needy for help, here. I'm using debian unstable on a
Thinkpad T20 and after a recent aptitude upgrade udev (version
0.100-1) broke my os (again...). The resulting symptoms close to what
someone mentioned here:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/136682
So I decided to downgrade to the previous version and did:
dpkg -P --force-depends udev
dpkg -i udev_0.098-2_i386.deb
(I'm guessing now this might not be the smartest way of doing such... ?)
It resulted in this:
Setting up udev (0.098-2) ...
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules exists, persistent
interfaces names not saved.
Populating the new /dev/filesystem temporarily mounted on /tmp/udev.g0Q1Bs/ ...
ln: creating symbolic link '/tmp/udev.g0Q1Bs/.static/dev/initctl' to
'/dev/.static/dev/.static/dev/initctl': No such file or directory
mount: special device /dev/pts does not exist
dpkg: error processing udev (--install)
subprocess post-installation script returned exit status 32
Errors were encountered while processing:
udev
And when I tried installing udev 0.100-1 again it had the same failure
to install. So now I can't even get udev installed anymore. Anyone
know a way out of this mess (while preserving my debian unstable
install of course)?
regards,
Ruben
