Installation kernels usually segfault for me... specially when they do
intensive disk work. I installed just a few series and then, after rebooting
into the fresh system, unpacked other series by hand. Worked fine.

Although, can anybody explain why those kernels usually fail? I have two
problems with them:
- Programs segfault.
- When I issue a reboot, the machine gets stalled (i386).

Thanks.
