Yep, I think this probably takes care of step 1 and possibly 3b, although the message that Wouter gets is making me think that for some reason the port has *not* run brandelf on the executables - if brandelf had been run, wouldn't the error message mention ELF binary type 3, not 0? So I went ahead and included all the steps, just to cover all bases :) G'luck, Peter -- Peter Pentchev [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~roam/roam.key.asc Key fingerprint FDBA FD79 C26F 3C51 C95E DF9E ED18 B68D 1619 4553 What would this sentence be like if pi were 3?
