old binary works not with 2.2.18

[kees]

Hi,

I have an old 4GL application (from SCO3.2v4) that is a neat database
tool. Under 2.2.17 with iBCS this works well:

kees@renske1:~ > cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.2.17 (root@renske1) (gcc version 2.95.2 19991024
(release)) #10
Wed Dec 6 20:16:39 CET 2000
kees@renske1:~ > sage
 
sage : Screen language interpreter
 
SCULPTOR 4GL + SQL
Release 2.0b (30 May 1990)
(C) 1984-1990 Microprocessor Developments Ltd.
All rights reserved
   
However under 2.2.18 I get:

kees@schoen3:~ > cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.2.18 (root@schoen3) (gcc version 2.95.2 19991024
(release)) #1 SMP Mon Dec 18 00:48:04 CET 2000
kees@schoen3:~ > sage
Segmentation fault

schoen3:~ #  file /usr/SCULPTOR/bin/sage
/usr/SCULPTOR/bin/sage: Microsoft a.out separate pure segmented
word-swapped V2.3 V3.0 386 small model executable  

Hints?

Kees

I am just curious.  Did you re-compile the iBCS2 module after upgrading
to 2.2.18 to did you force the module to load up...

With Slackware and kernel upgrades this is a regular procedure with me
otherwise chaos ensues  :-)

Hello,

Yep, *After* I build a new kernel I _always_ build a new iBCS module.

I have an old utility 'hd' (hexdump) from SCO3.2v4.2 that also needs iBCS
but has a slightly different format, *that* works under 2.2.18
