Hallo, syslinux,

I've just tried to compile syslinux 4.04 for slackware - it stopped when  
it tried to execute

  Entering directory `/path/to/diag/geodsp'
  ./mk-lba-img lba.img

"strace" shows

execve("./mk-lba-img", ["./mk-lba-img", "lba.img"], [/* 49 vars */]) = - 
1 ENOEXEC (Exec format error)
dup(2)                                  = 3
fcntl64(3, F_GETFL)                     = 0x8001 (flags O_WRONLY|O_LARGEFILE)
close(3)                                = 0
write(2, "strace: exec: Exec format error\n"..., 32strace: exec: Exec format error
) = 32
exit_group(1)                           = ?

---------------------------------------

I've got the packet from ftp.kernel.org, "mk-lba-img" has the timestamp  
"Apr 18 23:25".

For compiling I use the slackware skript for 3.84 with modifications  
only for the version; compiling 4.04-pre3 with it worked well.

What goes wrong?


Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
