Hi Lars:

I can not tell you much about prelink however we recently encountered
a similar problem. Check the /var/log/prelink/prelink.log file for
more details on what caused the abort.

We were not able to resolve our issue and decided to disable prelink
(there seems to be much differing opinions as to whether or not prelink
is still required). If you decide to disable prelink then Dag Wieers
has instructions on his web site on how to do this:

So far we have not noticed any significant performance issues as a
result of this change.

HTH

Regards, Hugh
