HP UX B.10.20 Login as root (Floating Exception)

Hello;
Could you please help me on this issue:

When I try to logon with root I receive below message:

Floating Exception, and the system logout.

Thanks a lot.
Regards

Hi,

if you have another shell open on this host, check via 'dmesg' or/and look into the syslog files, looking for unusual messages.
You may find LPMC messages, which lead to HW related problems.

Seeing a 10.2 HP host, I asume it already did its work for a couple of years.
I had a box, where a statement/result like the following (shorted) indicated, that it had reached its end of life:
echo 1 | awk '{a=$1;if(a-$1) print "I am wrong"}'

>Floating Exception, and the system logout.

This means you have a divide by 0. Is there a core file somewhere? You have a corrupted login program?
Can you login in single user mode?

This is typically a software bug or corrupted data.
