Nice information, which makes me wonder..

I'd always waned to know if it is simply possible to just run (linux)
programs under linux emulation. If so, HOW do you install those linux
proggies? Do I do some kind of chroot and install them in the "linux
part" of the system?

I want to experiment with some linux stuff under freeBSD. Is this
possible. And you need (linux) binaries I presume.. No tarballs?
