Probably because you have a separate /usr partition that is not mounted |
| 9 |
in single user mode? In this case, copy /usr/lib/libmagic.so.1 to /lib/. |

There is a utility that can convert static binaries from dynamic ones: |

It's not free, though. But there is a 15-day evaluation version you could |
| 17 |
use. They state that they support Free Software and OSS, so I guess they |
| 18 |
would be okay with this. The author also seems to be a nice guy, I |
| 19 |
exchanged some mails with him years ago because I looked for such a |
| 20 |
utility. But I did not buy it because the price (300€) was higher than my |
| 21 |
need for it. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Another utility is ELF STATIFIER (http://statifier.sourceforge.net/). |
| 24 |
It's free, but it seems to have some problems with stack or VDSO |
| 25 |
randomization. |
