Installing FMS on Fedora 11 (64-bit)

Hello,

I have a installed a fresh copy of Fedora 11 64-bit on my machine. I am trying to now install my registered copy of FMS 3.0 on the box but everytime I try to, I get this error:

# ./installFMS -platformWarnOnly
./installFMS: ./fmsini: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

Thinking it could be the version of my FMS, I tried installing the development version of FMS (3.5), but got the same error. I've done some research and ld-linux.so.2 is apart of glibc if I'm not mistaken. I have the following glibc rpms installed:

# rpm -qa | grep glibc
glibc-devel-2.10.1-2.x86_64
glibc-common-2.10.1-2.x86_64
glibc-headers-2.10.1-2.x86_64
glibc-2.10.1-2.x86_64

One thing I noticed that was fishy, was that all my *.so files are in the /lib64 directory and not the /lib directory that the installFMS is looking in. Also, looking in the /lib64 directory. I have found a file name 'ld-linux-x86-64.so.2' which is very similar to the file the install is looking for. I'm not very experienced with libraries so can anyone lead me in the right direction so that the install can read the right files? Thanks.

    yum install /lib/ld-linux.so.2

    Should install glibc.i686.

    Try

    yum provides /lib/ld-linux.so.2

    That should give you a listing of packages to try out.  Since you have x86_64, you might want to look at compat-glibc packages also.
