No, I mean busybox-static_1.18.4-2_sparc64.deb from the older Debian distribution. Meanwhile it's 1.20, http://ftp.debian-ports.org/debian/pool-sparc64/main/b/busybox/busybox-static_1.20.0-8_sparc64.deb but I only experimented with 1.18. Back then it was definitely a pure 64 bit application: $ file busybox busybox: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, SPARC V9, Sun UltraSPARC1 Extensions Required, relaxed memory ordering, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, stripped HTH, Artyom -- Regards, Artyom Tarasenko linux/sparc and solaris/sparc under qemu blog: http://tyom.blogspot.com/search/label/qemu
