I use SuSE 6.1 (beta) which is also compiled with libc6 and have no problem
with it.

Maybe the UMSDOS-partition is mount read-only and Euphoria has to write
sometimes something to disk? Or maybe Euphoria runs out of memory; since you
said it runs right from the DOS-prompt (I suppose with loadlin) and you
haven't partitioned your HD again, you probably don't have a
Linux-swapfile-partition, which will be used when you run out of memory.
Another possibility is that you don't have the rights to execute programs
from your UMSDOS-partition. Check your /etc/fstab for the settings.
