However, if I run it without the +map argument, it doesn't segfault but you can't really do anything.

I've never heard of a game called "action" but the steamcmd command seemed to download (something) completely on the first try but when I try to start it, it doesn't seem to exist ("Invalid game type 'action' sepecified. [SIC]"). I don't see a folder with the name "action".

HOWEVER, I just noticed something, I wonder if your biggest problem is that you're trying to install a standalone HLDS server in the location where the client game files are located, this is not good. A standalone HLDS server should be installed "standalone", away from anything else.
so you're suggesting i gotta install it somewhere remote? like hlds under /home/rootusr/hlds and steamcmd under /home/rootusr/steamcmd
