temp64I'm not sure what kind of sorcery udev post-install script is up to but it effectively bricked my root account17:05
temp64I tried installing linux-image-amd64 and grub-efi-amd64 in a chroot, apt got stuck, I closed the terminal window and now I can neither su - nor sudo pkill apt17:06
temp64both commands do nothing, forever17:07
temp64logging out in a tty makes the login prompt never appear again17:08
jonadabWorst comes to worst, you may need to boot from removable media and re-install / re-configure the kernel and boot loader and possibly udev, in order to get the system working again.  But I wouldn't resort to that unless the problem persists across reboots.18:21
jonadabIt also occurs to me that if something that happened broke something that runs in your /root/.profile or whatever, you might be able to get the root account working again by moving the relevant dotfile aside.18:24
jonadabBut with sudo not working, the most obvious way to do that is to boot from removable media.18:25
temp64Fortunately it unfroze itself after a while18:26
temp64I had to wait like half an hour or so18:26
jonadabInteresting.18:40
jonadabYou're not running low on virtual memory are you?18:41
jonadab(That *shouldn't* have that effect any more; the OOM killer should handle it, in theory.)18:42
temp64No, I was trying to debootstrap a system on my hard drive using the XFCE live image18:42
temp64There was plenty of memory left18:42
jonadabHmm.  Maybe it was I/O bound?  Dunno.18:42
temp64Damn, seems like I did one rmmod -f too many. Gotta restart18:46
