Message-ID: <19991103221741.C5806@sapphire.hypostasis.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.3i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I recently upgraded to 3.3 stable from 3.1-release. I thought that I'd done the make upgrade going from 3.0 to 3.1 to get from aout to elf but maybe I hadn't. My other box is a 3.3-stable and built perfectly well as far as I can tell but no the second box I am getting top: nlist failed man(3) nlist refers to a.out(5) so I was wondering if this implied that I still had a.out bits in what I had though ws an elf setup. I have had a look at the archives but I am obviously not quite searching for the right thing. Is there a simple way to tell which parts of the system are a.out and whcih parts are elf? If aout /elf is the problem is there a simple fix? Eg should I try a make upgrade on the problem box or is there a reference to other bits to change that I should check? Or am I heading down the wrong path? --kit To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
