FreeBSD is able to run (99% of) Linux ELF binaries and has a pretty complete set of linux compatible libraries, so I was hoping to get away with it. If I compile the hello world program, everything seems to work ok; but then when I try to run it I get a core dump. Technically, should it be possible to produce useable Linux binaries with Beta on FreeBSD? This is the output I got. #> beta hello.bet BETALIB is /usr/local/lib/beta LD_LIBRARY_PATH is /usr/compat/linux/lib Mjolner BETA Compiler version 5.4.5 (711) for Linux (Intel 386/486/586/Pentium) (elf) Target machine type linux Building dependency graph for: 'hello' ...
