Hello List,
I'm a newbie and coming from Linux background, and am trying to learn
FreeBSD now. The first thing I find a little confusing is that the
final FreeBSD kernel image is shown as a DYNAMICALLY LINKED binary:
$
$ pwd
/boot/kernel
$
$ file kernel
kernel: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel

Hi,
Please don't crosspost to many lists. This topic is probably
suitable for hackers@ but not for the other lists.

File is right. The kernel contains relocation entries so kernel modules
can be linked against it.
relocation entries is possibly not the right term, someone with better
knowledge of ELF will have to correct me.
