Hi,

I'm running 2.2.8-RELEASE, and I tried installing Star Office 5.01 from
the tar file. 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.
