Hi out there!!

I am having the problem that sysinstall sometimes starts dumping core.

For example:
	
		sysinstall -h
		Bus error (core dumped)

This also happens when I try to select the partition menu. Actually I noticed
this behaviour first when i tried to partition a new IDE-harddisk. :-o

My /stand looks like this:

Is there anything wrong you can see here? Or could you please be so kind and
compare to your own /stand ?

Thanks for anyone who could help,
