How about putting ld.so on one of the floopy disks and hacking the install program to always copy the ld.so file from floppy to /usr/libexec Then everyone gets a working system. However, installing the linux netscape 4.08 is a workaround I suppose the problems will be in Netscape and my XiGs Accel X 4.1. Anything other native FreeBSD aout binaries?
