Hi list
Ofcourse I have searched the archive, but to no avail.
I have the following problem:
If I try to install anything, say Bundle::CPAN, I always get this error. 
Tried both ftp and http, none work

cpan> install Bundle::CPAN
CPAN: Storable loaded ok
CPAN: LWP::UserAgent loaded ok
Fetching with LWP:
  http://archive.cs.uu.nl/mirror/CPAN/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz
Illegal instruction

I have no idea where to look for a solution; maybe this looks familiar 
to any of you guys?
Thanks

-Patrick
