/sbin/init: error in Fedora7
 
Installed Fedora 7 temporarily on the family PC (to keep the thing in commission until XP is re-installed)

It worked fine this morning, I added all the members of the family to the users. (Only me and root in /etc/sudoers)

However, I get back after 3 hours and try to boot the PC:
Code:
/sbin/init: error while loading shared libraries: libdl.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
Kernel Panic - Not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
The discs are good, I used them to install the box I'm posting this from.

Argh...

Has the system been updated after installation? If so, it could be a selinux policy problem (just a guess). In this case you can try to boot with the kernel parameter
Code:
selinux=0
and if it works, you may consider to downgrade to the previous selinux-policy.

I hadn't yet gotten round to updating it.
I'll try that anyway, thanks.

EDIT: Nope, still get the Kernel panic, even with selinux=0 as a kernel parameter. :(

Ah, never mind.
I re-installed, this time manually editing the partitions instead of letting it use the default layout (which used LVM) and it works fine.

/me thinks me might have just Murray-ed myself... ;)
