What does 'yup update' show? I'm not familiar with Fedora at all, so my help will be more general in nature. Hmm... take a look in /lost+found maybe? Do you have files in there? I'm assuming that / holds everything on your system, beyond maybe /boot in it's own seperate little partition. Have you looked in /var/log/messages as well? John

You don't give us much to go on. How about booting into single user mode by appending " single" to the end of the kernel line in grub? Then from the single user root shell try: touch /.autorelabel and reboot. Maybe SELinux labeling is messed up somehow.

Alternatively, just add " autorelabel" to the end of the grub kernel line.
For su, have you tried: sudo su or: sudo su - or possibly (but unlikely if it actually says it's not found): su - Also, try the full path to su, /bin/su. Otherwise, do you have /sbin/sulogin? You might be able to: sudo sulogin or /usr/bin/sudo /sbin/sulogin or whatever path those are on if they're there. For that matter, have you tried: whereis su Also, not sure if it's possible in Fedora, but can you open a virtual terminal, say ctrl-alt-f2 and log in as root? If so, retry all the things listed above. If you can find su check the permissions. You might need to run something like chmod a+x /bin/su On Wed, 2011-01-05 at 08:15 -0500, Walt wrote:

Certainly :)
Can I suggest $PATH may be incorrect in .bashrc?
First off, at the prompt, type echo $PATH # echo $PATH That will give your your path variable that is created by your machine profile (/etc/profile) as well as your local profile (probably .bashrc and .bash_profile). Mine looks like this (the first three entries are the important ones) me@machine ~ $ echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.4.4:/opt/android-sdk-update-manager/tools:/opt/android-sdk-update-manager/platform-tools:/home/me/bin:/home/me/sandbox/scripts:/home/me/bin:/home/me/sandbox/scripts Without /usr/bin and /bin being in your path, your machine won't execute anything from those folders if you only type the name. Also, have you found the su program yet? -- Eric Martin Key fingerprint = D1C4 086E DBB5 C18E 6FDA B215 6A25 7174 A941 3B9F

user_t is a confined user, it is not allowed to do root activity. Not sure how you got this setup, you probably want to run with unconfined_t. Please attach the output of # semanage login -l # semanage user -l If logging in as root gets you a user that is running as user_t, then you might have to boot the machine in permissive mode.

Did you do these commands as root?

user_t is a confined user, it is not allowed to do root activity. Not sure how you got this setup, you probably want to run with unconfined_t.
Please attach the output of # semanage login -l # semanage user -l
If logging in as root gets you a user that is running as user_t, then you might have to boot the machine in permissive mode.

These sound like SELinux issues. What does

If not, try "find / -name su" to find out where it is on your system.
