Hi guys,

I have a 5000/240 running 1.4.1 with 9GB of almost free disk
space. I was trying to install a big package, that is laTeX that
has one part that is very large (> 30MB) and I keep getting a
message of segmentation fault. I never saw a similar problem
with other packages, so I suspect that could be something
related to the size of the package. I tried several times, in
the second attempt I got a message such as conflicting/overwrite
and after that I got always the same sequence (shown below), but
actually it seems that nothing has been really written on disk.
I checked the integrity of the .tgz file and is correct, at
least tar doesn't complain. Thanks in advance. Cheers,

Dan
