On bootup FC6 crashes and locks up box. Error message: /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: Line 821 1499 Seg. Fault rm -f $afile/* Below is the section in rc.sysinit, and line 821 is indicated below, is where crash happens.

What can I do to fix problem?


# Clean up /var.  I'd use find, but /usr may not be mounted.
for afile in /var/lock/* /var/run/* ; do
   if [ -d "$afile" ]; then

Line 821       case "$afile" in
                    */news|*/mon)    ;;
                    */sudo)        rm -f $afile/*/* ;;

      rm -f $afile
   fi
done
