Run sysinstall as root (sudo sysinstall). Select Configure. Select
Startup. Check the box next to Linux (you will have to scroll
down). Hit OK. If prompted to install Linux compatible binaries,
select the affirmative response (yes or continue). The install
should modify your /ect/fstab file to include a line that looks like:
linprocfs /compat/linux/proc linprocfs
rw 0 0
It may not look exactly like that, but something close. When you ran
the install, it should have asked you if you wanted to install Linux
binary compatibility and you selected no. This is usually a bad idea
unless you know you won't run any software written for the linux kernel.

Hi, I have freeBSD 6.2-RC2
I installed vmware3 from the ports tree but I get an
error when I run it.
**************************************************
It seems linux procfs is not mounted on
/compat/linux/proc.
VMware does not work without Linux procfs mounted.
For details, see linprocfs(5) manpage.
***************************************************
I read the linprocfs and linux handout put I'm still
having problems with it.
Is linprocfs a command? or something to mount it,
because I cant find it on xterm.
can u plz help me out with this
