FWIW, I tried installing FreeBSD too (the latest version available via ftp
install -- Gee, why doesn't Linux offer this capability?), and it crashed
with a signal 11...segmentation fault. I slowed down the memory bus speed,
and got BSD to run. I retried installing Linux and it still fails at the
same point. I may retry the FreeBSD installation from scratch.
