Do the size and MD5 hash of 4.4-install.iso check out? That SIGSEGV during install seems weird to me, but I suppose it could be caused by, say, a broken executable on the install disk. > I have a feeling that these ISO images are not full or just fake. To my knowledge, the ISO images are both full and non-fake, or we would have seen a *lot* more complaints about them on the list.
