That is likely the issue. I get the same with kernel 2.4. A work-around that I've used: reboot into 2.6 and complete the installation. Then, you can go back to 2.4 if you wish and run sbcl.
Well, actually I prefer to wait until this bug is fixed (I'm writing on the premise that the bug belongs to SBCL not the Linux 2.4). In the meantime, I installed SBCL 0.8.16 from the testing Debian repository which installed and worked fine. I did not intend to upgrade to the latest SBCL had it not produce an error regarding with-output-to-string. The details are at: http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.lisp/browse_frm/thread/a878939... I think I'll prefer waiting, since this is a major issue, hoping the fix is going to come very soon. Regards, Emre

You may try to set locale environment variables to C before installation. It seems I had a problem very similar to yours. See bug#313230.

I would have also suggested this. Try to install with LC_ALL=C LANG=C Hmm. I think I'll remove the Reply-To hack as the debian bug db has nothing of this thread...

My only solution was to install a new kernel: 2.6.11 After booting with that kernel I was able to use SBCL (I also tried running it in 2.4 after installing it in 2.6.11 but it didn't work, too). So I went along with linux kernel 2.6.11 and SBCL 0.9.2 debian package. -- Emre Sevinc eMBA Software Development Team Istanbul Bilgi University http://www.bilgi.edu.tr <http://getfirefox.com/>
