FWIW... I've tried the subject core under Linux RH 7.3
[mak@koerber mak]$ uname -a Linux koerber.llan.ll.mit.edu 2.4.18-3 #1 Thu Apr 18 07:31:07 EDT 2002 i586 unknown When I execute it I get [mak@koerber mak]$ lisp20021219 Illegal instruction In fact I note that... [mak@koerber mak]$ ./cmucl-cores/20021219/bin/lisp Illegal instruction with no CMUCLLIB variable set...which would imply to me that the LISP executable itself fails before ever needing to read LISP.CORE. To make this a little stranger, the 20021219 binary works fine on an identical Linux RH 7.3 installation I have at work [mak@koerber mak]$ uname -a Linux koerber.llan.ll.mit.edu 2.4.18-3 #1 Thu Apr 18 07:37:53 EDT 2002 i686 unknown the only difference is that this is an i686, not an i586. mike Dr Michael A.
