.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm compat_sunos
|
|
.Nd setup procedure for m68k and sparc architectures
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
NetBSD/sparc and some of the NetBSD/m68k architectures can run
|
|
SunOS executables. Most executables will work.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The exceptions include programs that use the SunOS kvm library,
|
|
and various system calls, ioctl()'s, or kernel semantics
|
|
that are difficult to emulate.
|
|
The number of reasons why a program might fail to work is (thankfully)
|
|
longer than the number of programs that fail to run.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Static executables will normally run without any extra setup.
|
|
This procedure details the directories and files that must be
|
|
setup to allow dynamically linked executables to work.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The files you need are on your SunOS machine.
|
|
You need to worry about the legal issues of ensuring that you
|
|
have a right to use the required files on your machine.
|
|
On your NetBSD machine, do the following:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -enum -inset -offset 123 -compact
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li mkdir -p /emul/sunos/usr/lib /emul/sunos/usr/5lib
|
|
.fi
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li cp SunOS:/usr/lib/lib*.so.*.* NetBSD:/emul/sunos/usr/lib
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li cp SunOS:/usr/5lib/lib*.so.*.* NetBSD:/emul/sunos/usr/5lib
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li cp SunOS:/usr/lib/ld.so NetBSD:/emul/sunos/usr/lib/ld.so
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
If you ever expect to use YP, you will want to create a link:
|
|
.nf
|
|
.Li ln -s /var/run/ypbind.lock /etc/ypbind.lock
|
|
.fi
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Alternatively, you can use an NFS mount to accomplish the same
|
|
effect.
|
|
On your NetBSD machine, do the following:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -enum -inset -offset 123 -compact
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li mkdir -p /emul/sunos/usr
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li mount SunOS:/usr /emul/sunos/usr
|
|
.fi
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This will place the SunOS libraries on your NetBSD machine
|
|
in a location where the SunOS compatibility code will look for
|
|
first, where they do not conflict with the standard libraries.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
A list of things which fail to work in compatibility mode should
|
|
be here.
