This is not a Microsoft Xenix binary, contrary to what "file" claims. This is an SCO Xenix binary. It's not going to work unless you make an execution class loader for the a.out magic number, add the system call entry point mechanism for it, and then emulate the system calls we don't support, and provide stub-calls for the onces we do support, with appropriate translation of any manifest constant values that differ between FreeBSD and Xenix. Do you have a Xenix system with the developement kit? This would be a trivial project for someone who knew FreeBSD and had access to a Xenix developement system. -- Terry _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
