I also have problems with 'Install from Local Directory'. Setup 2.218.2.4 crashes on W98SE during the scan of the local directory tree with: SETUP caused a stack fault in module MSVCRT.DLL at 0167:7800fca4.
Sorry for not being able to provide more information. 'Install from Internet' works fine. Could there be any problems with the combination UPX and initial DLL loading ? 'objdump -p setup.exe' gives funny output for the import address tables. Ton van Overbeek
