What is going on? This is a clean formatted system. It's kindof hard to work when you can't see what's in the folder.

Hard to say. First, do a "which ls" and make sure it's /bin/ls and not something else (like /sw/bin/ls). If that's not the issue, you could turn on core files and run gdb on the core file and see what is causing the crash.

'ls' ? You mean you don't use 'echo *' ?
