--exec-shield set the base to the same as it was before. (In the middle of the address space.) What does this option do exactly? Why doesn't it boot when I relocate ld-linux.so? (or actually how can I relocate it so it would still work.) Also, how can it be that two identical machine got (totally) different values when they were installed? Maybe one machine is different in some way that forces ld-linux.so to be in the middle of the address space. I thought computers are supposed to be deterministic ...
