The doscmd driver program just has a simple a.out loader. : Making it understand elf wouldn't be too hard and is probably the : right thing - or use some other simple format that binutils can : generate. Hmmm. Lots of ELF loaders around. I'll have to give this a whirl. I'd hate doscmd to be the only reason to have aout-like code enabled in the compiler. Once the kernel and lkms are ELF, I think this is the last thing... Warner
