It segfault during install _and_ after install when we tried to set up
swap space manualy.

Honza is not yet here, so there is the output:
#mkswap /dev/sdb2
Segmentation fault

and on console (there is no syslogd :( ) is:
#dmesg

The same with recompiled mkswap.
Hope it helps.
I tried to compile our (international) ssh, but it ends with "not
enough memory" :( This indy has 32MB ram, maybe I will shut down our

faster...
No, that's not goot idea :-(
