1 This is probably a user question, but definitely for developers too.

3 the machine:
4 Dual Pentium II w/ Gentoo 1.2
5
6 the problem:
7 On a boot, everything seems to run fine, until emerge is run. If
8 sandboxing is on, emerge will run fine until just before it exits,
9 where it will segfault. If sandboxing is off, emerge seems to run
10 completely OK and exit correctly.
11
12 After emerge is run the first time, everything segfaults. The only
13 thing that will run correctly seems to be ls. You cannot login,
14 shutdown and reboot both segfault.
15
16 Hitting the reset button or power-cycling the computer won't help
17 either. It the end of init sequence, /sbin/runscript.sh (line 56)
18 and /sbin/rc (line 12) both segfault twice:
19
20 ...
21 * Mounting NFS filesystems... [OK]
22 /sbin/runscript.sh: line 56 2760 Segmentation Fault /etc/init.d/${x} start
23 /sbin/runscript.sh: line 56 2761 Segmentation Fault /etc/init.d/${x} start
24 * Starting local [OK]
25 /sbin/rc: line 12 2762 Segmentation Fault ${1} start
26 /sbin/rc: line 12 2763 Segmentation Fault ${1} start

33 The problem started after we set up NFS and tcsh. I removed tcsh, but
34 NFS is necessary. Does anyone have any ideas?
