Hi,

sometime in the past month, I performed an upgrade
to my unstable debian. (apt-get update/upgrade) and possibly (i can't
remember, a dist-upgrade.

I'm now getting a seg fault on a few commands., but repeatable is
when attempting to run df.

Can anyone suggest a way I can resolve the issue? My ultimate aim is to
fix without a reinstall the box. (but if needed, I guess I will).

Probably the one thing that might be the issue is I am running
2.5.72 kernel.

Here's my seg fault (not that it will help much, but show my pain I
guess :-)
