Running legacy i386 binaries on a amd64

2008-10-24 Thread scuba
Hi all,

I have a fresh install of FBSD 7 amd64, and I want to run some 
legacy binaries from my old box (Fbsd 5.x i386).
Searching the archives, I found this message:

When I try to run the binaries, the following error message is 
displayed:

ELF interpreter /libexec/ld-elf32.so.1 not found
Abort

I found the following tip to install 32bits libraries:

cd /usr/src
make build32
make install32
ldconfig -32 /usr/lib32

Is that enough? 


Thank you,

- Marcelo

I don't run 64-bit FreeBSD but from what I've read elsewhere, you can
install 32-bit binary support from your FreeBSD 7.x CD:

mount /cdrom
cd /cdrom/lib32
sh ./install.sh

If you're running 5.x binaries you might also need to install
misc/compat5x from the ports tree.

I hope this is some help...

should be. unless there are no needed libs in /usr/lib32 still, then find 
them and copy
