Problems to install ET

Does someone have any idea how can I get a round of this error

/tmp/et/setup.1947# ./setup.sh
./setup.sh&#58; line 278&#58;  1645 Segmentation fault      "$setup" "$@" 2>>$NULL
The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
 
See http&#58;//zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/ for troubleshooting
/tmp/et/setup.1947#

So I've executed ./et-linux-2.55.x86.run --keep, cause I don't want to uncompress et all over again, every time I try to install.

The server has glibc-2.3.2-12tr, so shouldn't be glibc problem??

# rpm -qa | grep -i glibc
glibc-devel-2.3.2-12tr
glibc-2.3.2-12tr

Use the newest installer for 2.56. (2.56-2)

Log in as root and install, then log in as a user.

I had this problem and it worked that way.

Which distro are you using? (So we can leave this as a reference)

Mine is SuSE 9.2

It's a trustix... something...

I solved the problem by using Quake3 setup (linuxq3apoint-1.32b-3.x86.run). I found it from some webpage (I'll tell you later, link is in my home PC). So what I did...first executed quake install with --keep option (leaves setup files to server), then I executed et install with --keep option. I replaced all files in (ET) setup.data directory, exept two files that holds ET related configs (setup.xml and postinstall.sh), with quake3 files and then executed setup.sh, that's it, worked fine and server is now up and running.
