The last line is very important, and no the binary wasn't executed. It's not a question of input files or anything else, the problem is that binary. I would guess that its a OSF/1 binary and not a Linux binary or it's not a binary at all. Just take some random file of bits, make it executable and run it. You'll get the same error.

actually the entire command line output went like

# ./twolf00.peak.ev6 test
modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.13/modules.dep: No such file or directory

modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.13/modules.dep: No such file or directory

bash: ./twolf00.peak.ev6: cannot execute binary file

(sorry for not including the last line in my last email, my bad)

so i think the benchmark was not executed. and besides, no output file was produced. the name of the executable changed since i switched to the precompiled binary i downloaded off the Internet(so the crosscompiler can't be the culprit).

am i missing something? i mean, what i did basically was place the binary and the input files in the image(latest-linux.img, the one that came with the m5 distro), boot the simulator, and then run the executable.

is that the correct procedure  for running  benchmarks in FS mode?

thanks a lot for taking time to answer my questions.

That error shouldn't be a problem. The benchmark is almost certainly still running, just some syscall it did attempted to load a module, however that module isn't necessary.

i am trying to run cpu2000 benchmarks in full system mode, and already compiled the benchmarks using the crosscompiler. after copying the binaries to the image i then tried running the benchmarks within the simulated system. i got the error

# ../TimberWolfSC stdcell
modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.13/modules.dep: No such file or directory

modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.13/modules.dep: No such file or directory

after looking around the net for a while i came upon this message wherein steve advised another user to have the benchmark(it was not exactly the same benchmark though) statically linked to get around this. i then tried statically linking twolf by adding "- static" to the makefile's "gcc" argument and then crosscompiling again. the binary's size did increase, but the results are still the same, it still looks for modules.dep. any ideas? thanks a lot.
