Re: run linux program then "FATAL: kernel too old"

thank you very much, it works.
after sysctl, though /emul/linux/bin/sh fail differently,
vi, gcc and some other programs run correctly.

by the way, the binary that /emul/linux/usr/bin/g++ generate can run under  
fedora 10

( I have put this sysctl to a script in /etc/rc.d/linuxkernver. does it  
have side effect? )
