Hi there,
 
not sure what might be the cause, but if Prelude.hs is somehow missing
from your installation, something's badly amiss. Perhaps you could try
downloading the current release (Nov2002) from
 
    http://haskell.org/hugs/
 
and give it a go instead?

Subject: How do I get "Prelude"?

I downloaded hugs98-2001 but can't get it to run. It comes up with
a "hugs" screen, but tells me that it can't find a file called "Prelude"
and then quits. I searched the whole disk, but there is no "Prelude"
anywhere to be found.

Here is the hugs screen that came up:
