Hi All,
I use FC18 box (3.9.4-200.fc18.x86_64) for ssh-ing to other boxes. It was working normally without rebooting for months but now when I tried to put "su -" in the terminal, it hangs.
I haven't found any help in Internet.
Any idea? Please advise...
Do you get a password prompt, or does it hang before that?
See http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-enterprise-47/console-hangs-wh.... Is 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts?
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=129045 What might be in the various .bash files in /root? grep -i path .bash* in /root
If you CTRL-ALT-F3 to a new console, can you login as root? That is, is this a root problem or an su problem?
