I'm trying to install 2.1.7R on the following system:

 486/66
 24 Megs
 1 420 Ide
 1 210 Ide
 3Com 10bt

The installation type is FTP, distribution is kern developer.  The
process works fine up until the dict portion of install is about 90%
complete, where the install stops showing progress on VTTY1 and the
following error comes up on VTTY2:

DEBUG: Unexpected signal 11 caught! That's Bad!..

The hardware had 2.1.4,5, and 6 on it and worked like a charm.  I've
recopied the dict distributions and tried it again... still nothing.

Anyone have any ideas?
