This is nothing about gmc, but about you upgrading libc6 to unstable.

Uuuuh, bad.

Well, you can bypass init on startup by passing init=/bin/sh on the
lilo prompt.

Mail debian-glibc@lists.debian.org about this problem.

how to fix this broken system?

2000-10-27 Thread chris edwards
Greetings,
I can't remember the exact error, but something involving gmc caused 
my system to become unusable. When i boot linux up now, i get this
error message:

init: unable to load shared library: /usr/lib/libc6.so:, undefined
symbol GLIBC_2.0

i've tried using the debian rescue but that hasn't worked. is there
any way i can save my system (or at least get my data and do a
 reinstall)?
cheers,
chris / [EMAIL PROTECTED]
