I installed slink on a SunClassic using floppies. All was fine; I mean,
the base system installation. Recently, I oftentimes experiencing "bus
error" & "segmentation fault" during apt-get'ing. I'm not sure why, but
it seems that once I changed some of the directories into symlinks. I
have put back everything as the original, but the errors still occur
sometimes.
Lesson: don't touch those directories, you don't know where they should
be...
