I just completed an install of the linux base package that emulates red Hat 5.2 on a 3.3.4 system using the ports collection. My intention is to use the linux emulation to run sybase for linux on my system. I would like to get some input as to wheither I should try to run the 11.0.3.3 version or the 11.9.2 version. Though I am leaning towards the latter version. I want to set up the database with a web frontend using php for the forms and have it accept input form both a custom VB application and the php forms. Right now the only documentation I can find on how to do this is an article from comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc ( search Sybase via FreeBSD Author is Reinoud van Leeuwon 4/4/2000 ) . An article at www.samag.com ( january 2000 ) on emulating linux on freeBsd. and the Handbook section on emulating Linux. there was an article at www.martin-place.com about sybase but it seems to be unavailable today. I noticed when I run kldstat i get a listing for the kernel and ID Refs Address Size Name 2 1 0xc088d00 e000 linux.ko and modstat gives me modstat:/dev/lkm: device not configured Questions: What should be my next step? I have downloaded the files from sysbase for 11.9.2. what command should I use to install them ( rpm for freebsd or the rpm in the directory under linux compat directory) ? I had and install fail last saturday ( different machine same OS, version )when I used rpm without the linux compat path. what conditions need to be in place to get it to work this time. I added the options to the kernel from the Samag article. What else do I need to add or remove? Kernel changes i made: options "P1003_1B" options "_KPOSIX_PRIORTY_SCHEDULING" options "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L" options SYSVSHM options SYSVMSG options SYSVSEM options USER_LDT I saw these in questions email but I'm not sure if they are necessary options SHMMAXPGS=10000 options SHMMNI=100 options SHMSEG=10 options SEMMNS=200 options SEMMNI=70 options SEMMSL=61 Are there any more articles I can read?
