Hi,
I am using the following sage installation guide -

Every time I tried to run the build, at some point the terminal froze. It does not stop on a specific part of the installation, every time it stops in a different spot.

I am using the newest update of Ubuntu, let me know if any other information is relevant. I hope this is the right place to ask for advice, I have been trying to install sage for 3 weeks and I couldn't seem to find a single way to make it work. If you have a different installation guide you recommend I would also be happy to hear, though I tried every guide I could find with no success.

Thank you in advance,
A

Please post here config.log and install.log
It's next to impossible to guess what goes wrong without this info.

You may try this one as well


though that might not save you if your platform has an unordinary setup. 

See "Troubleshooting" section for proper report of the installation issue on your system.

If you are using Ubuntu, also check your memory allocations.

I found my "tower" crashing, but my "laptop" worked OK. The laptop had twice the memory size of my tower, so I increased the tower's swap memory to 10 gig, and it worked fine.

regs, Kev
