| 1 | Hello, |
| 2 | |
| 3 | what's the purpose of bin86 in system? |
| 4 | |
| 5 | From 'emerge -s bin86' |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Assembler and loader used to create kernel bootsector |
| 8 | |
| 9 | From /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bootsect.S |
| 10 | |
| 11 | * modified by Chris Noe (May 1999) (as86 -> gas) |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Can bin86 be removed from system, or is there other packages still using |
| 14 | {as,ld}86? |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Many thanks, |
| 17 | Norberto |
