While installing extension pack in virtualbox (FC16_64bit), i encounter a error for /etc/shells file.

Content of fc15 /etc/shells file

/bin/sh
/bin/bash
/sbin/nologin
/bin/dash
/bin/ksh

content of fc16 /etc/shells file

/sbin/nologin
/bin/dash

Therefore, i added differential content of fc15 file to fc16 file. Error disappeared. Extension pack installed successfully.

Except I'm not posting from OSX. I'm on Fedora 16. Midori is telling people I'm on a Mac. :blink: :confused:

yes, there was a bug in the install..

You can fix the problem by re-installing bash


yum reinstall bash
