Of course you're correct for what the OP is doing but actually in way this a kind of a cool idea. If you could modify the apt-get installer to know FreeBSD's linux compat layout and brand the binaries appropriately you would have a fabously easy method of installing linux bins although I guess you'd have better luck doing it yum rather than apt-get. -- Adam Vande More _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
