You should be able to get away with rebuilding the two components of Sage that are likely to have these "illegal instructions", namely mpir and atlas. Try the following: - Go to the directory you installed Sage in - Type ./sage -f mpir-1.2.p4 - Wait till MPIR is compiled & installed, then type ./sage -f atlas-3.8.3.p5 If you haven't already remove the file that keeps the flags for the binary you downloaded: rm local/lib/sage-flags.txt Sage should now start without problems.
