Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there a kind of cookbook that describes the steps to perform to get a stock (ELF) 3.1 system to run old (aout) binaries. I have a lot of them and it's a pain in the 'OS' to get these /usr/libexec/ld.so not found messages etc. I find that it should be an installation option to get the necessary links and directories etc up easily instead of having to set various paths, copy old libraries into aout subdirectories and so on. Maybe I overlooked something user friendly that has been done in this vein but it didn't spring into my eyes while doing the install. -- Chris Christoph P. U.
