Guys, Here is a new one for me. I have an (old) backup box running 10.3 that needs an update, but I have to get it to boot first. Currently, the box looks to boot normally (it boots to runlevel 3). The only process that shows a fail is 'resmgr'. At the login prompt, I type my name and pw as normal, then the following occurs: You have new mail. Module is unknown Welcome to openSUSE 10.3 i586 -- Kernel 2.6.22.19-0.3 default (tty1) login: I get thrown right back to the login prompt. So I know I'm sitting there looking at a 100% running system (samba, apache2, postfix, mysql, all running just fine...), but I have no way to login. Looking at the error with resmgr, I see the following boot message: ... lib/libresmgr.so.1 invalid ELF header Huh? I know it is close to Christmas, but I don't need any invalid elfs in my box. Bahumbug... So googling ELF it's some Extended Language Facility, but what I don't know is "is this related to the problem logging in?" If so, how do I fix it? I thought about booting from the install media and then chrooting the install, but if I can't log in, I'm not sure that will work. (I'll try later regardless) Bottom line - if libresmgr.so.1 has a bad ELF header can that be the cause of the no login? If so, how best to fix. Boot from install, chroot & reinstall resmgr? What say the gurus? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
