Can't read the Deployment Wizard - SAS 9.4 Linux

[ddefranza]

Hello!

I'm trying to install SAS 9.4 in Arch Linux. I know it's not supported but I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction of a fix for this strange problem.

When I launch the Deployment Wizard, I can't read any of the text. Here's what I see on, for example the second page of the wizard:

And on the fourth page after entering a directory:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Maybe there is some incompatibility between the SDW and the X11 libs for this Linux distro.
Else you can run the SDW with -console to bypass the X11 interface.

That's great advice. Console mode works like a dream. However, now my installation is failing at 14%. No idea why...

Guess it's time to research another problem...
