More breakage in the tarballs:

at the end of installing minicom with apt-get on the "full" debian 
via nfs:

>>
Fetched 281kB in 10s (26.9kB/
s)
                                                                     
Selecting previously deselected package minicom.
(Reading database ... 13029 files and directories currently 
installed.)
Unpacking minicom (from .../archives/minicom_2.1-9_arm.deb) ...
Setting up minicom (2.1-9) ...
find: /etc/minicom: Value too large for defined data type
>>

I get a bunch of several such messages on boot (always have) both 
with ts11 and the new ts12 release. Several of these happen when 
trying to bring up the network during boot (if-up et al.) but there 
is wider breakage here where any use of find seems to fail.

Since apt-get and many scripts rely on this the distro image as it is 
is disfunctional.

It would be nice if these lose ends got tidied up.

TIA
