"It" can't decide by itself to run qemu-arm-static. When you are trying to run executable that no native executable pattern is checked and if there is registered runners (like qemu, wine, etc) then this runner used. In order to register runner you have to write magic string into /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register Format of this string described for example here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binfmt_misc Valery > > > >after a restart of the server. rootfs does not work anymore automatically, > >i get a "chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash': Exec format error" > >doing "chroot rootfs /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static /bin/bash" does chroot, but > >i get : "bash: /bin/cat: cannot execute binary file" (although rootfs/bin/cat is a perfectly ok armel binary, tested on the armel target). > >i also checked the md5sum of the rootfs/qemu-arm-static binary, and it is ok > > >i mounted the rootfs on the armel target using nfs, and chrooted from the target, and it works perfectly, meaning there is nothing wrong with the rootfs filesystem > > >as it wonderously worked, now it wonerously doesn't > > >tryed googleling for it , but still cant find how to make it work > > >any idea ? > > > >_______________________________________________ >Linux-il mailing list >Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il >http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il > > >
