howdy!

i'm trying to get binfmt_misc support
working (which allows for running java class
files directly from the commandline). 

according to the binfmt_misc readme docs that
come with the kernel source (2.2.16), one is
supposed to echo a string to 
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register

however, the directory "binfmt_misc" doesn't
exist in /proc/sys/fs, and when i try to 
make it i get this wacky stuff:

[root@lazy /root]# ls -ld /proc/sys/fs
dr-xr-xr-x    2 root     root            0 Jun 30 19:37 /proc/sys/fs
[root@lazy /root]# mkdir /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
mkdir: cannot create directory `/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc': No such file or directory

[root@lazy /root]# chmod 755 /proc/sys/fs
[root@lazy /root]# ls -ld /proc/sys/fs
dr-xr-xr-x    2 root     root            0 Jun 30 19:37 /proc/sys/fs
[root@lazy /root]# mkdir /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
mkdir: cannot create directory `/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc': No such file or directory

i have the binfmt_misc support compiled
directly  into the kernel.

is there a special way of making an entry in
the /proc filesystem??

has anyone else been successful at getting binfmt_misc
support working?

thanks in advance!
