Well, the >ld.so is in /usr/libexec. What should I do to make linux doom look for >ld.so in /usr/libexec? What's the best thing to do? Since it's a Linux executable, it needs the Linux ld.so (whose job it is to bring in the shared libraries and do the run-time linking). You need to make a /lib directory and put the linux ld.so and (a.out, not ELF) shared libraries there. I am not sure where you get them, but I believe they are somewhere in the ftp.cdrom.com FreeBSD tree. -- Nick Sayer <nsayer@quack.kfu.com> | "... which shows you that school N6QQQ @ N0ARY.#NORCAL.CA.USA.NOAM | can sometimes give you a bad +1 408 249 9630, log in as 'guest' | education."
