Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I nuked a large ext2 partition by causing a sudden FreeBSD reboot, simply running a linux binary under the emulator. All the ufs partitions recovered... and ext2, as usual, died. I know about the brandelf trick: next time maybe I'll remember to used it :-) While I wait for the tape to do its duty, I was wondering: does anybody know why some linux binaries come branded as Linux, and others as SVR4? bye, jimmy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
