This is what I see on the screen after the program runs for about 5 minutes. At this point it appears to be hung even after letting it sit for over an hour:


/mnt/sda2/Users/Don/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Windows Virtual/Windo... /opt/avg/arl/scan.sh: Line 1097: 3001 Segmentation fault avgscan -T --ignerrors --report /opt/avg/arlscan_report.txt --arc --heur --pup --pup2 -W '/mnt/sda3/Recovery\\%WINDOWS%' /mnt/sda2/Windows\\%Windows\\%WINDOWS%' "/mnt/sda1" "/mnt/sda2" "/mnt/sda3" "/mnt/sdb1" "/mnt/sr0"

<<CANCEL>>

When cancelled get the following new window:

INFO:

Unknown Return code.

<<OK>>

NOTE: The CD boots just fine but hangs after running about 5 minutes at the exact same place everytime.

HI NVDon,

avgscan has crashed during the scan, please provide as the last scanned file with its full path and content of the /opt/avg/av/log directory.

Thanks.

Hi LinuxAdminDEV,

AVG crashed..

Don't mean to hijack this thread but I have encountered the same problem:
line 1097: 2226 Segmentation fault.

1. Should I delete the file AVG was scanning when it crashed and try again?
or
2. Should I download the software again and burn it anew?

Thanks. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

EDIT.. Just to add that the crash happened after 4 hours.
Thanks.

Hi davidlll.

Please send me that last scanned file via these steps:
http://www.avg.com/ww-en/faq.num-2142

You can avoid that failure by deleting that file, but we would like to solve it.

Hi LinuxAdminDEV,

I am sorry - I must have deleted it because it seems to be progressing OK this time round.

I've got another question - do I have to do anything when it finished the scan? Or would the Recovery software clean/kill the infected files automatically?

Thanks.

Hello davidlll,

Please follow options offered by AVG Rescue CD. If you choose to cure/delete files it will do it automatically.

For more information about AVG Rescue CD please follow this sticky post.

If you do not understand certain steps, please feel free to ask here on forums.

Thank you.

Hi LinuxAdminDEV,

I was getting ahead of myself there ....
stuck again!

And I can't send you the problem file because it wasn't there when I got in to look.
It could be a sessional temp file:
/mnt/sda1/Documents and Settings/NetworkService/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/Content.IE.....

can't see the rest of the path.

Any comments?

Thanks.
David

Hello davidlll,

Are you able to boot to Windows?

If you can, please add C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 folder into archive and provide us with file and with Rescue CD logs for further analysis of this issue.

You may then delete contains of this hidden folder and try to run AVG Rescue CD again.

Thank you.

Yes I am able to get into Windows (XP) - but what do you mean by add folder into archive?
How do I do that?
