Turn of '-Wall' in GCC. Er, no, sorry, bad joke. Your hard disk got an error, almost definitely on the swap partition (hence the pager read error and subsequent SEGV). Is it consistent? If it is, maybe you're running out of swap, and your disk is formatted to sectors beyond it's reach, i.e, you have a disk with 1024 sectors, and you have your swap partion set to include sectors 768 through 1036. I had that happen to me with my first install of 1.1, actually, since I was installing onto a disk that I had only a vague idea of it's geometry (I knew heads, tracks, but not cylinders, or something like that, once I found the correct data, my problems went away). Hope that helps... -- -- Richard Nickle http://www.trystero.com/rick.html
