./sysedge: cannot execute

sysedge appears to be a symbolic link to the current directory, so it should behave like a directory, not an executable. i.e. you should be able to cd sysedge and your current working directory would become /opt/EMDsysedge/bin/sysedge. An odd arrangement! Try running ./sysedge.sol29 or ./sysedge.sol29-sparcv9 instead perhaps?

You might try running a pkgchk EMCsysedge to make sure that your installation is still intact.

Annihilannic.
