Hi everyone,
I've playing around with linux and noticed that for some mysterious reason commands like '/bin/sh ' just will not work. Each time I'm trying to start a process it yields 'cannot execute binary file' error message.
m@sanctuary:~$ sh sed
/bin/sed: /bin/sed: cannot execute binary file
When I first launch sh and try to execute sed, it succeeds.
I'm starting to loose my wits. It would be just great, if somebody could help me.
Thank you.
