Help with ELF file entry point in lab
Hi,
I'm currently stumped on this lab in particular on the last question: https://us.immersivelabs.com/v2/labs/elf-execution-structure/series/computer-architecture
It's asking for the "entry point", which I had assumed based on the image output was 0x4048c5 (it explicitly even says this in the image near the top!), but that's incorrect, as well as answers regarding the PhysAddr addresses. It had gotten to the point where I'm so stumped I tried putting in every other answer I could think of, like the type of program header or some of the names in the segment sections to no avail.
The question itself is very vague (what else could be the 'entrypoint'?) and I've been stuck on this for quite some time. I'd appreciate any hints to point me in the right direction, because I don't know what else to put in for an answer now!
Hi again,
I managed to get the correct solution. Looks like the question is expecting the GNU_EH_FRAME address. Looks like an error because the question is asking for the entry point.
Hope they can solve it, but meanwhile, if you want to finish the lab, use the GNU_EH_FRAME address.

Same situation here. I tried all kind of formats and nothing is accepted.
