You need to find a static mount command and cp (possibly on rescue images). If you can do that, just suck the glibc stuff onto a flash drive with those and move them over. From there, you should be able to start rebuilding. Otherwise, you are correct, likely just better to copy data and configuration information off the system and reload. Good luck, Trever
