I use the linux_base-6.1 port, which installs some 57 Meg on /compat/linux. But all that's on /usr, a UFS partition. My machine dual boots between Linux and Freebsd, so the Linux partitions are on a different slice. I mount Linux's / partition on /mnt, usually read-only to reduce the number of fsck's after each panic. # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/da0s1 /mnt ext2fs ro,noauto 0 0 > how do you run your linux application ? > /linux/bin/whatever or /compat/linux/bin/whatever ? I'm not running the binaries in /compat/linux. I cd to /mnt/bin (Linux's /bin) and run ./ls. > /linux/bin/whatever may failed if not branded to Linux, > while /compat/linux/bin/whatever should work. > try "brandelf -t Linux /linux/bin/whatever" before to run /linux/bin/whatever > and make the symlink /compat/linux to /linux if it doesn't exists. I haven't branded them because I wasn't sure how Linux would react to the brand. Besides, it doesn't seem to have trouble identifying that they are Linux binaries. But I'll try the experiment tomorrow and report if there's any difference. All good ideas that could cause emulation to fail, but I don't see where they would cause a panic. P.S. I know I announced this to both -emulation and -fs, but let's restrict the follow-ups to one or the other, probably -emulation. --Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message
