Thanks for the explanation Larry. Meanwhile I've read some stuff about non-MMU memory alocation (I had the wrong idea of how memory was allocated). I guess my system ram is not that much (only 8Mb)...
How would shared libs solve the problem? The problem is allocating memory for 'ls' data and not 'ls' itself. Is this correct?
