Mine freezes here, too.

I originally installled Tiger through Software Manager which installed version 1:3.2.3-6

So I downloaded version 1:3.2.3-10 from this link: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/tiger/tiger_3.2.3.orig.tar.gz

Extracted, installed and still get the same results.

As you can see from the terminal output I'm apparently still running the older version. However, a check with dpkg --list outputs the following:
ii  tiger          1:3.2.3-10

Just to confirm: are you using Tiger in an Ubuntu system. If so, which package version are you using? (3.2.3-6?)

I would recommend you to upgrade to the last release of the Debian packages (3.2.3-10) available at http://packages.debian.org/sid/tiger and see if you can reproduce the issues you have.

It looks like one of the script does not work properly in your system and freezes it. Could you please run the following (as root) and attach the output to this bug report?

sh -x /usr/lib/tiger/systems/Linux/2/check_inittab

Thanks
