 |
|
I can't su from a user thats is in the wheel group to root. I also can't log into root from the console. At first I figured someone hacked me and changed the password but I couldn't see how that had happend. So I put in my 2005.1 and mounted the files systems and proc then chrooted. Now when I try to run passwd as root the computer will just simply hang and not do anything. Secondly when I try to su to any user I get
| Code: |
livecd / # su andrew
Segmentation fault
|
So I tried to emerge pam and shadow and this is what happens
| Code: |
livecd / # emerge pam shadow
Calculating dependencies ...done!

try "which su -a". On a sane system, it should be /bin/su. Check if it still has its setuid bit.
Maybe your harddrive is busted. Check the usuals, memtest, livecds, ...
