I guess that's what I get for not actually > needing to reinstall any FreeBSD machines I run since 5.3... Besides OVERIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT: I suggest to install the fc3 one instead. It's as adventurous as the rh9 port. But contrary to the rh9 port it has some sort of blessing from the maintainer(s) of the userland part of the linuxolator (it is supposed to replace the current default linux base) and you can expect help on emulation@ in case something doesn't work (there are known deficiencies in all linux base ports which aren't maintained by emulation@).
