Description ajay 1999-11-02 17:54:34 UTC

Install 6.1 fresh on HP Vectra XU 5/90.
1 Pentium 90 CPU, 64 MB Ram, 4.3 GB IDE, 16 MB /boot,
3900 MB / and 208 MB swap.

Selected everything to install.
After installation completed on reboot I get lot of
messages:
BUG IN DYNAMIC LINKER ld.so: dynamic_link.h 57: elf_dynamic
info assertion '! "bad dynamic tag" failed.

After login in as root tried to run 'ps' command and got
 the same error (and no output from ps command).

BUG IN DYNAMIC LINKER ld.so: dynamic_link.h 57: elf_dynamic
info assertion '! "bad dynamic tag" failed.

Tried different partioning of hard disk but still have same
problem.
Also applied all available updates (downloaded rpms), but
problem persists.

It was a new install of 6.1 from scratch. Did not change anything in
/etc/ld.so.conf i.e. it is as installed.
(could send you a copy later if you want).
It has a pentium 90 machine one processor (dual capable Iremoved
one of the processor before installing as 6.1 SMP kernel crashes on
it, a
diffrent problem.

The video card is actualy Diamond Stealth 64 Video 2001 (S3 Trio64V+)
which I think uses S3 86C765 chip.

Here are contents of /etc/ld.so.conf

/usr/X11R6/bin
/usr/lib
/usr/i486-linux-lib5/lib
/usr/lib/qt-2.0.1/lib
/usr/lib/qt-1.44/lib

===================
1. I do not have any problem with X programs so I do not think 6654
   is duplicate to 6685.
2. I did ldconfig -n, even then got the same problem with "ps"
   suggesting it is not a problem related to /etc/ld.so.conf.
   I think the problem is how "ps" is compiled/linked.
   ldd wont run on /bin/ps so I did 'string /bin/ps | grep lib'
   here is what I got:

      /lib/ld-linux.so.2
      libproc.so.2.0.0
      libc.so.6
      Compiled with: libc %d, internal version %d.%d
vm_libpid,tname,majflt,minflt,m_trs,m_drs,m_size,m_swap,rss,m_share,vm
_lib,m_dt,args

   /bin/ls work file so I did same on it an got

     /lib/ld-linux.so.2
     libc.so.6
    __libc_start_main
