Customizing RIP
The kernel and programs on the system are compressed with UPX v2.00. So, if you do this 'file /usr/bin/lynx', you get this. /usr/bin/lynx: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1, statically linked, corrupted section header size
You can ignore that!
Also, 'ldd' will say a program is statically linked, even if it's not.
If you want, you can uncompress a program like this 'upx -d program'. You can't uncompress the kernel!
You can get UPX here http://upx.sourceforge.net; I installed it from the Ubuntu package.
