Yes. I have two architectures running and both worked fine with the
script. Sounds like something is wrong with your system.

Have you checked your memory? That might sound unusual, but I kept
having strange bugs running java, so I checked the memory with
memtest86 and memory errors showed up. This was corrected by removing
the cache chip and replacing a SIMM.
