Comment 45 for bug 292791

Walter,

This recipe should permit reproducing the crashes from your intrepid system; if you can confirm this to be the case, we can go from there on trying to get debugging information out of it.

$ sudo chroot /media/disk su <username>
$ sudo -s

where <username> is the name of your admin user on the Ubuntu 8.10 install.

That will let us see if sudo is crashing within the 8.10 installation.
