An attempt to execute an 32-bit ELF binary fails with the following error:\r\n\r\nbash: ./program: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error\r\n\r\nAdding i386 architecture to dpkg and installing i386 versions of relevant libraries (libc6, libncurses5, libstdc++6) does not help.\r\n\r\nGenerally this is not a big deal if the source of the program is available in a way or another, however, there is quite a lot of 32-bit proprietary tools that are distributed in binary-only form, and currently those are unusable within BashOnWindows.\r\n"}}
