about 4G ram

I am clutching at straws here but would that suggest there is a hardware incompatibility issue, what is you physical set up?

hi

each test was fresh install now i've installed centos 4.8 (works fine) and upgraded do 5.3 (via cd/netinst), and the segfault appears again

df -h gives me about 29G free on the / partition

any other hints? fous

Warning: WAG questions follow:

was each of the 5.X tests done from install or upgrades from previous installs? [I have seen a library get munged on first install, and a reinstall would fix it, but if the upgrade used the same version of the lib, it would not fix it.]

Just another guess, what processor do you have?

How close to being full is the disk after the 5.X install?
