Not that I know of. Hmmm... You could hack such a behaviour in the linux emulator, i suppose. Every file in /proc which has nothing to do with processes can be regular files then... A well... The only reason I can think of for such a behaviour, is when you want to be sure your application is not run in an emulated environment :-) marcel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-emulation Mon Feb 8 09:01:47 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA28619 for freebsd-emulation-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 09:01:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.ruhrgebiet.individual.net (in-ruhr.ruhr.de [141.39.224.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA28611 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 09:01:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from robsch@robkaos.ruhr.de) Received: from robkaos.ruhr.de (admin@localhost) by mail.ruhrgebiet.individual.net (8.8.5-r-beta/8.8.5) with UUCP id RAA04684 for freebsd.org!freebsd-emulation; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 17:43:31 +0100 (MET) Received: by robkaos.ruhr.de (Smail-3.2 1996-Jul-4 #1) id ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 17:36:10 +0100 (CET) Message-Id: From: robsch@robkaos.ruhr.de (Robert Schien) Subject: Linux-Applixware SQL stuff To: freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Mon, 8 Feb 1999 17:36:10 +0100 (CET) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL28 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Has someone succeeded in running the SQL stuff from Linux-Applixware 4.4.1?

Hmmm. It should ask where you want the stuff installed. I don't have a /opt either and never made one... Anyway, the install script merely checks which libc to use and starts an install program in the corresponding subdirectory. In my case, it saw libc5 stuff and wanted to install the libc5 version. By running the install program in the libc6 subdirectory manually, it went well. Could you experiment with that? I hope someone is running Applixware under FreeBSD 2.2.8, because I don't even know if it is at all possible... marcel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-emulation Thu Feb 11 19:16:05 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA07473 for freebsd-emulation-outgoing; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 19:16:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA07390 for ; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 19:15:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id NAA18206; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 13:45:54 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id NAA00990; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 13:45:53 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19990212134553.R491@lemis.com> Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 13:45:53 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Thomas Stephens , freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: BSD/OS Emulation Status?

I had thought that we would now be compatible with BSD/OS ELF, so to check it I dragged out my BSD/OS 3.0 CD-ROMs, which I thought contained ELF binaries, but what I saw was: /cdrom/7/bin/[: Infocom game data (Z-machine 8, Release 0, /cdrom/7/bin/bash: BSD/OS i386 compact demand paged executable (uses shared libs) /cdrom/7/bin/cat: Infocom game data (Z-machine 8, Release 0, /cdrom/7/bin/chmod: Infocom game data (Z-machine 8, Release 0, They definitely contain no ELF string.

What are these things? Is > that what you have? If you compile a binary without shared libraries (eg. gcc2 foo.c) it should be ok, but it appears that FreeBSD doesn't support BSD/OS 3.x's wacky and screwed up static shared library system. BSDI 4.x supposedly uses dynamic shared libraries; if they work or not is another question, but I think support for them is more likely.

What are these things? Is >that what you have? I actually haven't got any BSD/OS CD-ROMs, but I think ELF support is new with version 4.0, so 3.0 binaries would presumably be a.out. With the addition of Linux compatibility, BSD/OS has obviously got some way of distinguishing its ELF binaries from Linux ones, but I've no idea how it does this, or if there's any similarity to FreeBSD's branding scheme.

I asked a friend at bsdi, and he said "we use Linux' branding method." I let him know just where this branding thing originated. :) Their brand is "BSD/OS", not surprisingly. Sean.
