- Hi,
-
- Due to no response in the bsd group a couple of weeks ago, and the fact
- I recently noticed that linux seems to have shared libraries I was
- wondering if whoever knows *lots* about them can either (a) try to port
- them or (b) help me port the implementaion across.
-
- I realise that this will not be a trivial operation, but it is a starting
- point.
-
- At minimum, will someone tell me the "minimum working set" of linux source
- files needed to understand how they are implemented. I take it there are
- bits in exec() somewhere ? and the linker etc...
-
- Thanks from a frustrated laptop owner without X386 due to lack of disk
- space,
