One of my machines got rooted today by a script kiddie. Looks like I forgot to patch the latest wu-ftpd hole, so t0rnkit was installed and my machine became an spamming zombie...ads for a casino. Now I'm trying to fix everything, by installing new binaries, upgrading, repairing, etc. I'm wanting to reinstall with Red Hat 7.1, over the current 6.0 install. I have purchased, original discs for 7.1, but upon booting the installer, I get "install exited abnormally -- recieved (sic) signal 11," and it then tells me that I can reboot. (Gee, could I really?) Alt-F4 shows me that it's "Unable to identify CD-ROM format," and Alt-F3 gives me a series of "Bad magic" and "path is NULL" errors.
Fucking Red Hat.
It's going to be a late night. I can tell already.
