Hi all,

As I wanted to give 0777 permission for /home/test directory, I want to

execute "chmod -R 0777 /home/test", but I mistakenly executed "chmod -R

0777 /". Due to this entire file system permission got changed to 0777.
I am using Debian Linux 2.6.12

Now I am not able to execute su, which gives me error as "setgid:
Operation not permitted". It seems to be I have created a serious
problem. Can anyone please help me to solve this problem?

Try to login as root, rather than su to it....
the processes already running do still have their
permissions.

Go to single user mode, if you can.
