My linux (fedora core 6) previously worked fine. One day after it

correct user/password because it again goes back to login prompt. I
used the rescue disk to boot the system and could eventually log in
and found the /dev/mem does exist.

Anyone can help on this?

You are screwed real bad.
Run check on your memory.

Many thanks
