This is the first major release of
|
2002-04-02 15:36:34 +04:00
|
|
|
.Nx*M .
|
|
|
|
Previous versions of
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
supported the \*M platform as part of
|
|
|
|
.Nx Ns /arm32 .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
Unlike previous releases of
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
for the ARM architecture, the \*M port uses the ELF binary format.
|
|
|
|
However,
|
|
|
|
.Nx \*V
|
|
|
|
on \*M is, as usual, fully backward compatible with old
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
a.out binaries, so you don't need to recompile all your local programs
|
|
|
|
provided you set the appropriate binary compatibility options in your
|
|
|
|
kernel configuration.
