I believe you just answered your own question: You can indeed use dynamically linked LinuxPPC executables directly on MPC8xx targets. However, you need to rebuild the shared library they link against at runtime as Wolfgang describes. Note that memset.S and dl-machine.c are in the shared library, and not in the dynamically linked executables. Regards, Graham ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
