I'm posting this mail 'cause I can't get the Linux emulator to work - I've stick to the manual but with little result so far... and honest I don't know what I can do to solve this one. But first of all : ELF 32-bit MSB executable Version 1 stands for "Linux executable" ? Actually this one comes from BSDI ... DESCRIPTION OF MY SYSTEM I'm working with a 2.1.5R installation completely fresh : 2.1.5-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE #0: Fri Aug 2 17:10:21 MET DST 1996 root@free-me.marben.be:/usr/src/sys/compile/FREE-ME i386 and, basically, I'm trying to get this package to work : perl: ELF 32-bit MSB executable Version 1 (actually it is the Perl interpreter that comes along with Excite). What I get is : ./perl: Exec format error. Wrong Architecture. STEP 1 I've installed the Linux emulator stuff : - in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/(current-config) I have COMPAT_43, COMPAT_LINUX, SYSVSHM define. Please note that no LINUX-related option was mentioned in the LINT .... And indeed I have reconfigured recreated and reinstalled my kernel. STEP 2 Then I have installed the LKM : now modstat returns : Type Id Off Loadaddr Size Info Rev Module Name EXEC 0 3 f074e000 0018 f0753000 1 linux_emulator STEP 3 I've even added the libs : # make all install Checksums OK. # pwd /usr/ports/emulators/linux_lib Do anyone see where the mistake is ?
