Good day to everybody,

freebsd 7.1. i install it from rpm. before it, i installed
linux_base_f9, load linux.ko, mount linprocfs.
You may have problems with FreeBSD-7.1 and linux_base-f9.
Welcome to emulation@ mail list.
When i run sudo rpm -i --ignoreos --dbpath /lib/var/rpm --root
We don't use linux rpm database, it's behaviour is undefined,
untested and unsupported.
/compat/linux vmware-server..rpm i get this:
/bin/sh is needed to vmware-server..rpm,
but there`s /bin/sh and /compat/linux/bin/sh.
What does it mean, and what i need to do to resolve this problem?
You may do it like this:
-
# cd /compat/linux
# rpm2cpio your_rpm_file | cpio -id --quiet
-
You'd better create a port and use it to install/deinstall
that rpm file.
