Ok. Found it !

FPCUP is expecting the dynamic loader (ld-Linux.so.2) at /usr/lib/ld-Linux.so.2
But its not there.
A link is present in /lib
Another link is present in /lib/i386-linux-gnu

The real file is here: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so

So, just create a symlink from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -> /usr/lib/ld-Linux.so.2

And off you go !
Good luck !!

I have updated fpcup.
Should work now on Debian, without the need of manually adding links !

Yes, thank you very much!  The Debian LXDE VM on this page (http://wiki.freepascal.org/Small_Virtual_Machines) now works with fpcup!

Hopefully tomorrow I can try the ReactOS VM.

Hi Paul,

Have you had any luck on the ReactOS & fpcup -Issue ?
In ReactOS i desperatly miss the SMB-drive-mapping-support.
I think that I have to wait for the 0.4 version.

Today I tried 69923 (the 60 MB version, not the msvc version) from here:
http://iso.reactos.org/bootcd/

I no longer get the "blue-screen-of-death" but fpcup never completes.

I just tested the ReactOS 0.4.1 version and things work much better.  I also updated the ReactOS section of the wiki page: http://wiki.freepascal.org/Small_Virtual_Machines#ReactOS_virtual_machine

I just added a new section to this wiki page and I've been trying to get fpcup working on TinyCoreLinux: http://wiki.freepascal.org/Small_Virtual_Machines#Levinux_virtual_machine


Is there any hope?  Regardless, Levinux sure is fun!

Win10 makes console mode linux simple and fast!

Yes it does. I have installed a Debian user space. Once you could only install Ubuntu, but that limitation has gone.
Both FPC and Lazarus can be compiled under WSL. It is not a VM, though, it actually runs native.
It is somewhat limited, though, since it is confined to user space Linux.
Specialize a type, not a var.

Only if you do not already use VMware or VirtualBox. If you want WSL2 then you will have to choose between WSL2 OR VMs. You can not use both in the same Win10 session. Bummer. Main thing for WSL2 was to bring Docker support, but I will not use WSL2 if I have to say goodbye to my VMs. I think this is a very nasty way of M$ to make  VMware and VBox users switch over to M$ camp.

Offtopic quest. About what console mode linux are you talking ?

I use it with ArchLinux :D

Both FPC and Lazarus can be compiled under WSL. It is not a VM, though, it actually runs native.
The VM part is correct for WSL, but not for WSL2 as there they're running the whole kernel in a Hyper-V VM.

It is somewhat limited, though, since it is confined to user space Linux.
Again, not true anymore for WSL2. Though to be honest: when you really need to develop something in kernel you do that either with a dedicated hardware or a dedicated VM.

If you want to run GUI applications on WSL you need to install a X11 server for Windows and have WSL use that to display any GUI. So by default you're restricted to command line applications only.

I forgot to read the WSL2 documentation properly it seems. Thanks for the corrections. I indeed assumed WSL.

I don't know about WSL. I always use putty and mc for VM console access. Putty has SSH, X11 port mapping so you can integrate it with XMing (if needed).
