Would you please tell me why kernel without mmu cannot support a.out binary file? And does that mean the only way to execute the a.out binary file is by ld? BTW, I also find that if I want uclinux kernel to support ELF binary file, I also have to enable the mmu option. But the format of cross-compiled binary file like busybox is only ELF, if there is option I can add to let busybox and other binary files compiled in different format. If I guess correctly above, does that mean uclinux doesn't support ELF? appreciate your kind help, miloody -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
