Default cannot run linux application on FreeBSD amd64
I have installed the linux_base-f10 port and it says support for 32 bit and amd64. However, when I try to run a linux application on my FreeBSD amd64 machine I get error:
Code:
eng55419# ./standalone
ELF binary type "3" not known.
./standalone: Exec format error. Binary file not executable.
eng55419# brandelf -l
known ELF types are: FreeBSD(9) Linux(3) Solaris(6) SVR4(0)
eng55419#
When I do a readelf -e on my executable, the OS/ABI is UNIX-Linux, so I believe the application has the correct branding.

Is it possible to run Linux applications on FreeBSD AMD64?

Thanks.

Have you enabled linux emulation in the kernel? You need to load the linux.ko module
# kldload linux.ko
or compile it into your kernel. There is also an option linux_enable in rc.conf.

Thanks.
Yes, if the applications are 32-bit. The linux compat layer does not support 64-bit apps yet. What is the output of file ./standalone

You can't run 64 bit linux executables, only 32 bit.
