Hi,
I'm sending this to lfs-dev since I'm not subscribed to alfs-dev and I'm
in some sort of emergency.
I was all set up to use jhalfs to test the current lfs book, and I believe
it messed up my system. After a couple of false starts, jhalfs told me
this:
Building the system...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Building target 020-creatingtoolsdir
rm: cannot remove `/tools': Is a directory
make: *** [020-creatingtoolsdir] Error 1
Goodbye and thank you for choosing <jhalfs>
So I (quite idiotly) did:
0[/home/miguel/heap/jhalfs/jhalfs-trunk]# rm -rf /tools
and now my system's b0rked. Watch this:
0[/bin]$ l | grep tool
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Nov 18 2005 bash -> /tools/bin/bash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Nov 18 2005 cat -> /tools/bin/cat
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Nov 18 2005 pwd -> /tools/bin/pwd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Nov 18 2005 stty -> /tools/bin/stty
0[/bin]$
Why and how did jhalfs modify my binaries in /bin?
In the meantime, if somebody could send me a static bash, I'd highly
appreciate it. I can't even compile my own bash.
