Hi followers!

I've used emacs before and like to install it on a IBM Thinkpat with a
486 200 MB HD, 12 MB RAM. I've installed mulinux on it, and I'm trying
to compile emacs on a different machine (SUSE 7.X, Pentium) cause
there isn't enough space on the lapi :)
The created emacs executable for the 386 is about 5 MB and after
transfer to mulinux the error seems to be:
emacs: not found. 
Does anyone know this frightening problem?
I need my emacs!

thx,
joni)

Have you: 
- chmod +x emacs ?
- Is this emacs in your Path or have you started it with /full/path/to/emacs
?

/root/emacs: not found 

anyone know what I'm missing?

thank you,

It's built using a different version of libc (or of ld.so, most likely).
The `not found' message is probably confusingly referring to
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 or something like that.

Stefan Monnier chiseled very nicely in

Hi!

thank you again :)
figured it out on weekend myself:
ldd /root/emacs
ldd: can't execute emacs (No such a file or directory)

you were right. :(

Does anybody know where to get that old libs on the internet? I need
them in kernelversion 2.0.36 (mulinux) for recompiling emacs again -
and to put the whole thing back on mulinx.
Well I'll try to recompile emacs with mulinux's libc.so.5.4.13,
ld-linux.so.1, libncurses.so.3.0 and libc.so.5 - but without libm.so,
compiling will probably fail. [1]
I'll post again, if it worked -

thx,

joni)

[1] maybe I was looking in the wrong place: it's either in /usr/lib,
nor in /lib
