You're probably trying to cut corners and aren't following the full (documented) upgrade procedure. Signal 12 is SIGSYS (unimplemented sycall), and you're receiving it because 5.0's /bin/sh depends on a syscall which only exists in recent 5.0 kernels. You shouldn't bump into this if you upgrade correctly. Kris
