Error while loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.5

I left pacman downloading nvidia drivers, and when I came back my father had reseted the computer.
Now, I don't know what might be the cause, but starting Arch gives me something like this just after INIT 3

/bin/bash: error while loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.5 ...

And so on. It doesn't goes anywhere from there.

What can I do? I have Fedora too and no problems on accesing Arch's partition.

Do a forum search. There are plenty of threads about this.

@Allan: I can't believe you said the same thing there too. haha...

I'm sorry. I searched, but not very well it seems.

Thanks.

Just upgrade readline and bash

EDIT: You can't boot? Should have upgraded it first before rebooting!
Insert Live Cd and mount the / at /mnt
and :

pacman -r /mnt Sy bash

[quota]"I'm sorry. I searched, but not very well it seems."[\quota] Next time you must search better, because it's a very known problem, recently, this is everywhere...
