However, the linux base installs itself into /compat/linux (i.e., $LINUXBASE) by default, and attempting to mount linprocfs at the given location will fail. >How-To-Repeat: Install emulators/linux_base-f10 on a system with a default $LINUXBASE # mount -t linprocfs linproc /usr/compat/linux/proc >Fix: The Handbook should be changed to give the proper mount point for linprocfs as /compat/linux/proc >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
