Pkg xen devel - May 2007 - Bug#423006: xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-i386-pae: /bin/sh : error while loading shared library libcrypt.so.1

Package: xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-i386-pae
Version: 3.0.3-0-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system


 I use Debian Sid and Xen 3.0.3-1, and recently after an apt-dist upgrade, i
reboot my
server and now when i restart the server, i receive these error :  /bin/sh :
error while
loading shared library libcrypt.so.1 cannot open shared object file :no such
file  ... I
reboot the server on non-xen kernel, if i search the file libcrypt.so.1 i found
in these
file in many directory :

/lib/i686/nosegneg/libcrypt.so.1
/lib

what's wrong ?

I think the problem lies in the initrd used to boot the hypervisor
(/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-xen-686).

I uncompressed it (using gunzip then cpio -i --make-directories), and
found out the following :

hortense:~/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-xen-686.out# ldd bin/sh
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
        libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0xb7f9a000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb7f73000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7e30000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fdb000)

but :

hortense:~/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-xen-686.out# ls -l lib
total 1212
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root   4096 2007-06-08 12:23 i686

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root   4096 2007-06-08 12:23 udev

So there's no /lib/libcrypt.so.1

Actually, I find it in :
hortense:~/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-xen-686.out# ls -l lib/i686/nosegneg/
total 1496
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   21908 2007-06-08 12:23 libcrypt.so.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1327616 2007-06-08 12:23 libc.so.6
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    9684 2007-06-08 12:23 libdl.so.2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  153424 2007-06-08 12:23 libm.so.6

Soo... I think there's something wrong with the initrd generation for
the xen hypervisor :(

I'm gonna try and symlink so that the libcrypt.so.1 gets available in
lib and see if this solves the problem... however I'm not sure the
nosegneg is right for starting the dom0...

Hope this helps.

FYI, the bug report #420754 seems to correspond to this problem, and
proposes a workaround.

I'm gonna try it and test if this solves the issue.
