Can't login missing GLIBC_2.3.4 not found - required for -bash

I just upgraded my slackware 9.1 installation using slapt-get. On a reboot, I login as root, it tells me
-bash: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3.4' not found (required by -bash). It seems I'm hosed. I can boot from CD but it makes no difference, I'm not sure how I can login to try and fix this problem as it seems everything needs GLIBC_2.3.4

Cheers

I think you can try this: Use a Slack 10.2 CD to boot, mount your hd somewhere (i.e. /mnt/hd) and run:

Code:

ROOT=/mnt/hd installpkg glibc-*.tgz

You can also use upgradepkg to upgrade your current glibc.
