32 The method that we brand ELF binaries has changed to be more
33 acceptible to the binutils maintainers. You will need to
34 rebrand your ELF binaries that aren't native. One problem

36 before you reboot, you'll neeed to issue:
37 brandelf -t Linux /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig
38 if you have Linux compatibility enabled on your machine.
