If you notice, the reason /proc isn't being mounted by the init script is because grep segfaults. I wonder if there is something like Gentoo's revdep-rebuild for Red Hat.
I replaced the grep binary from a similar system. Grep works now, but proc still doesnt mount.
I'd run an fsck to start with.
Done that yesterday. Clean.
If necessary, restore from the superblock
backup. Then I'd reinstall glibc and the lib packages.
To be on the safe side, I suggested upgrading to atleast Fedora core 5. Today mount is segfaulting, tomorrow more commands would segfault. The suggestion has been accepted. but I'm real curious. BTW. I can't use the rpm command in rescue mode, so reinstalling glibc would be difficult.
