Hi all

I've recently bought a new machine (from ebay!) and have installed RedHat
8.0 on it.

Its running Kernel-2.4.18-14 and was installed via RPM.

However, when running a very simple perl script, I get a segmentation fault
and the following lines appear in syslog (at bottom of mail).
The machine is doing nothing fancy .... its running a dhcp-client and
sendmail.

Is there something in the error messages which indicates where the fault
maybe?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark Waterhouse

Well, the first thing I'd do is www.memtest86.com and check out if the ram
is ok.

Many times when the kernel forks another process, it crashes. It
looks like you have one (or more) of the following:

(1)	Bad RAM.
(2)	Over Clocked.
(3)	CPU too hot (wrong heatsink).
(4)	Bad board (why somebody got rid of it was on ebay).

Hopefully, it isn't (4). I got a Tyan board off from ebay once.
It was the last time I did that. $135 down the drain. It would
boot DOS/Windows/Linux, then stop.

Cheers,
