Lee offered this little gem:
% Trying to install BootMagic on a Manrake 7.0 that is already installed
% on the hd. Plan on adding SuSe later. Have BootMagic on a Partition
% Magic 4.0 disk. When I try to execute the file with
% /mnt/cdrom/BOOTMAGIC/ setup.exe Enter, I get a'" can't execute binary
% file" error message. If i try . /mnt/cdrom/BOOTMAGIC/setup.exe I get the
% same error message. Questions: 1) can BootMagic be installed from the
% Partition Magic cd on an already installed Linux system, 2) how do I get
% the binary file to execute from the cd?
I'm guessing that you have to run a Windows binary from the
Windows operating system, unless you have Wine installed. Also
make sure that the CD is mounted with the "exec" directive in
/etc/fstab, or at least not with the "noexec" directive.
