Hi,

I upgraded from FC11 to FC12 and system hangs during reboot. I removed RHGB from the boot command line and I see 4 occurrences of this error message:

Missing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions, exiting.

This suggests a severely corrupted system.

Then this message:

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth: line 298: 858 segmentation fault /sbin/dhclient ${DHCLIENTARGS} ${DEVICE} failed. [FAILED]

This too.


Then these error messages:

Starting NFS daemon: rpc.nfsd: unable to resolve ANYADDR:nfs to inet address: Name or service not known
Rpc.nfsd: unable to set any sockets for nfsd [FAILED]

This, and the remaining error messages are a consequence of the first two, and are immaterial.

System hangs at this point.  Any help is appreciated, thank you.

You have major system corruption. First, review your installation/upgrade process, if you remember for any hint as to what went wrong. If there's any hint of a problem with an upgrade, it should be cancelled immediately, rather than forging ahead, blindly.

Next, boot and append "1 forcefsck" to your kernel boot command, resulting in a full fsck and a boot into run level 1. This checks your filesystems to verify that they're in a consistent state, then throws you into a root shell, skipping most of the initialization.

Then, run "rpm --rebuilddb" to check and make any necessary repairs to your RPM database. Afterwards, you'll have to use some elbow grease to identify which packages weren't properly installed, and reinstall them via yum or rpm. The missing network-functions script is from the initscripts package, for example, so at the bare minimum you'll need to reinstall initscripts. It's almost a certainty that you have a long list of broken packages to reinstall, not just initscripts. Like dhclient. And probably many others.
