Thanks for the info. I am putting together a system to be a 2.2 system any way so I will just wait for that to do the Linux emulation stuff. I wish I had time to try the port, but they keep me to busy at work to do anything fun like that ;-) -Sean --- On Tue, 8 Oct 1996 20:21:47 -0700 (PDT) "Bryan K.

I could be wrong, but I think that this is because the binaries in question are ELF format, and I presume you're running this on 2.1.5, which doesn't have ELF support in it. 2.2current does have ELF support, so you may need to run that, or port the ELF stuff to 2.1.5 (which is not for the faint-hearted, I'd imagine, although if you do get it working, I'd like to mooch off of you :) ). To test 2.1.5's linux emulation support, you can run abuse for linux, which works fine and is quite fun, and also available on ftp.cdrom.com. :) >What can I do? >-Sean >---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Sean J.
