 | | Enable SunOS 4.x executable files in a.out object file format to execute on the Solaris 8 release (where the default object file format is ELF). | | | Whenever possible, provide SunOS 4.x-compatible versions of system files when the file formats are different or the SunOS 4.x files have no counterpart in the Solaris 8 release. | | | Provide SunOS 4.x behavior for all library routines and system calls, including those with new interfaces or different behaviors: even if the interface to or behavior of the calls differs, this mapping ensures that the SunOS 4.x binaries will get the expected behavior. |

| | FAQ: Sun Computer Administration Frequently Asked Questions |
| | In SunOS 4.x the amount of swap space and Virutal memory are one and the same so you need at least as much swap as real memory. | | | SunOS 4.1 and later shouldn't get "inode: table is full", as that table is dynamically allocated; SunOS 5.0 should dynamically allocate entries in most if not all of those tables. | | | Under SunOS 4.1, you can run "showfh" to translate the NFS "file handle" given in the error message into a Unix pathname. |
