testing the challenge locally #20

Description

@AravGarg

This issue is not directly about the challenge but rather on how to test the binary locally. I added -debug to the script as mentioned in the docs, but I run into this error : legacy bitmap isn't available. Btw, even with the original script, I ran into the same error so I wasn;t able to test the challenge locally. I have contacted the author of the challenge but I haven't received a response. Also, there's nothing on the net that shows a similar issue when running the sde simulator.

    @AravGarg The error legacy bitmap isn't available is from ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 and is likely caused by details of your setup.
    It is worth mentioning that CET support is still not fully merged into official Linux kernel.

    When solving the challenge, I used Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and on a machine with 8 GBytes of RAM available.
    Note that Software Development Emulator apparently requires about 6 GBytes or RAM to run the challenge binary.

    Could you please test with similar setup, perhaps boot live Ubuntu from ISO ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso in a VM and run run.sh form the challenge archive?

    Thanks a lot Sir, I will get back to you when I try it.
