Don't forget to check for updates to the SysVinit package too...
You may also want to download a current copy of chrootkit and see if you have been rooted. http://www.chkrootkit.org/
There's a reason that you corrupted your init image and you need to know what it is.
Thanks very much for the advice.
We have the newest version of SysVinit available for 2.1
I grabbed a copy of the latest chkrootkit & ran a check both locally and by nfs mounting the machines disk on a trusted box, all seems clear :-)
I suspect that the problem occured due to the error on cpu1 which hung the box but i've not been able to find any record of that error in /var/log/messages as it was printed to screen, any clues as to other things/places to check for such an error and/or the cause?
