* Boot from the Live CD/DVD
* Depending on the Live CD you are using (Gnome is better, cause you'll only need to double click the appropriate icon on your desktop), you'll have to manually mount your root partition or not.
If you need to mount it (so, if you are using KDE), the best way is:
sudo su
mkdir /myroot
mount /dev/sda1 /myroot (where /dev/sda1 should be replaced in case)
Here's how I did:
* Boot from the Live CD/DVD
* Depending on the Live CD you are using (Gnome is better, cause you'll only need to double click the appropriate icon on your desktop), you'll have to manually mount your root partition or not.
If you need to mount it (so, if you are using KDE), the best way is:
sudo su
mkdir /myroot
mount /dev/sda1 /myroot (where /dev/sda1 should be replaced in case)
* Then, download the old glibc:
chroot /myroot wget http:// us.archive. ubuntu. com/ubuntu/ pool/main/ g/glibc/ libc6_2. 7-5ubuntu2_ i386.deb
* And run dpkg in order to downgrade it:
chroot /myroot dpkg -x libc6_2. 7-5ubuntu2_ i386.deb
* After, you can always remove the package from your root dir.
