This issue could be something similar to what I was experiencing recently. http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2003/debian-sparc-200309/msg00149.html After upgrading libc on an SS10 calls to sscanf using a %f in the format string produced SIGILL. In this case, though, only some programs broke, not all of them (a 'ps' would work, a 'ps ax' would not). As somebody suggested installing a newer kernel solved the problem: I tried the newest Debian 2.4.21 sparc32 and it works fine. So, try upgrading your kernel (after booting from CD-ROM or the net) and see if that helps. Other than that I guess your only option is re-installing. Regards, Markus
