For non-ELF Linux
Started by simover 27 years ago2 messagesgeneral
Hi there,
I was told that for non-ELF Linux, the dld library MUST be obtained
and installed on the system.
But how do I know if it is ELF or not? I am using Redhat 5.0.
Thanks so much.
Re:[GENERAL] For non-ELF Linux
Hi,
If you have RedHat 5.0, you are probably in ELF kernel.
In fact this distribution support both, ELF and a.out
for compatibility with old programs.
I think the majority of Linux distribution are now in ELF.
a.out was the begining of Linux. So I think you don't have
to take care of this. Now all programs that you can download
from the WWW are running under ELF.
Who is using a.out ? If i said stupid things please correct
my point of view...
