Hi,
I'm having some trouble installing debian-interix. I'm on XP SP3 
(32bit, english) with SFU3.5 installed. I also installed all the 
hotfixes that are listed on the hotfix-page for my config (a 
whopping 20 hotfixes).
However, when I start "ksh setup", I get segmentation faults during 
the install:
First I tried as normal user (with "su -" before running setup), 
then I read about having to log in as Administrator, so I did that 
and re-ran setup, but I still get exactly the same errors. Any ideas 
what might be going wrong here?
Did you delete the old stuff before retrying? Quote from install 
instructions:
* If you have done a previous bootstrap installation and want to
  restart from beginning, make sure to remove or rename the following
  files and dirs, so they don't exist when you proceed with the next 
step:
  - /debootstrap/debootstrap.log
  - /usr/local/man/man
  - /var/cache/apt/
  - /var/lib/apt/
  - /var/lib/dpkg/
Alternatively, the DEP issue could be the problem, see:
http://debian-interix.net/techdocs/#dep
This might be solved already with the hotfixes (I currently can't 
remember exactly), but make sure the hotfixes are active by 
issuing "uname -a".
