8af915ba1d1ea (Alexey Dobriyan       2009-01-22 11:04:23 +0300 13) 	  to run these binaries, you will want to install linux-abi which is
8af915ba1d1ea (Alexey Dobriyan       2009-01-22 11:04:23 +0300 14) 	  a set of kernel modules that lets you run SCO, Xenix, Wyse,

8af915ba1d1ea (Alexey Dobriyan       2009-01-22 11:04:23 +0300 23) 	  (but you need NFS file system support obviously).
