Not a big one, except that you might not even notice the failure if it _were_ a shell script. ;-) What one can see here is simply that execve() failed (the #! has obviously not been interpreted correctly by the kernel, perhaps imgact_shell has not been called?), so the invoking shell falls back to `old-style' and tries to interpret the script itself. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
