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.
