I know this is months after you posted this, but I've just gotten around 
to giving it a try and come to a problem when running the command:

	pbltool nfs.pbl

It seems to copy the first file across ok, but then somewhere later on 
it segfaults. I have a trace [0] of the segfault if that's any help.

I don't suppose you or anyone else has come across this and could shed 
some light as to what I'm doing wrong?

I should perhaps say that I already have the OE version [1] running on 
my E3 - would that make a difference?

Any help or pointers greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave
