1.Check if you have required libraries to run bash. You can check it with ldd /bin/bash 2. Check if you have linked /bin/sh with /bin/bash. 3. Try passing init=/bin/bash to kernel to check if it works. 4. Check if you have a good /etc/inittab. Regards, Mukund Deshmukh Beta Computronics Pvt. Ltd. Web site - http://betacomp.com
