Since the files that it is tripping over should exist, using the switch should be safe. Also, if you are having path and uname problems, an easy solution is to work from within a the linux shell, i.e. run /compat/linux/bin/sh. > -----Original Message----- > From: Doug Barton [mailto:DougB@simplenet.com] > Sent: Friday, March 10, 2000 12:56 PM > To: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org > Subject: [Fwd: Weird errors from linux (compat) rpm] > > > No response on -questions, and I'm a bit desperate here... > > Thanks, > > Doug > > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: Weird errors from linux (compat) rpm > Date: Thu, 09 Mar 2000 11:13:06 -0800 > From: Doug Barton > Organization: http://www.simplenet.com/ > To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > > Howdy, > > I'm into the wonderful world of linux compatability for > the second time. > The first time I played with it went quite well, I set up > real player and > it ran quite nicely.
