Old thread, but got exactly the same stupid mistake. /lib64 was moved to /lib64.bak remotely and everything stopped working.
This was a x86_64 install, so ephemient's solution was not working:
# /lib64.bak/ld-linux.so.2 --library-path /lib64.bak/ /bin/mv /lib64.bak/ /lib64
/bin/mv: error while loading shared libraries: /bin/mv: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
In that case, a different ld-linux had to be used:
# /lib64.bak/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --library-path /lib64.bak/ /bin/mv /lib64.bak/ /lib64
Now the system is salvaged. Thanks ephemient!
