I got some "invalid binary file" message--it was so long ago, I can't remember what exactly it was. Anyway, I never investigated it, I just scrapped the task after the first failure. Since then, I have had no interest in the SVR4 binary. -- Andrew Hesford ajh3@chmod.ath.cx To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
