I followed the script at lt.tar.com, and installed the glibc libraries. Trying to run setup gave the following error : $ ./setup ELF binary type not known Abort trap $ I have not recompiled the kernel with POSIX extensions enabled, because I didn't find the options mentioned in LINT ( this tip was in the how-to of freebsdrocks.com ), so I assumed they are not applicable to this version of BSD. I am able to run other linux binaries (netscape 4.5, for example). Thanks in advance for any help.
