You know, one of the things that really made me feel like I knew what I was doing with linux was when I accidnetally typed the following (as root [being root was a stupid, stupid thing to be, I learned my lesson]).
gibson:/# mv * .jpg /var/www/html/images/
ooooops.
I moved my entire directory structure into /var/www/html/images/
No /bin, no /lib, nothing.
Calling things with an absolute path, a la /var/www/html/imagse/bin/ls
gave me:
/lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
Eventually, I figured out that calling:
/var/www/html/lib/ld-linux.so.2 --library-path /var/www/html/lib /var/www/html/bin/ln -s /var/www/html/lib /lib
Would let me rebuild the system by mving things back to their proper location.
After that, any problems I encountered seemed trivial.
- shimsham 15y ago;-) nice. this is how people learn to wear the careful gloves if they have to do things as root, or when sudoing.
