Short explanation

Staticly linked binaries require no shared libraries to run.  Dynamicly 
linked binaries definately require shared libraries to run (i.e. this 
thread).

root@abcjr-->/<--# ldd /usr/bin/ls
/usr/bin/ls:
        libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2 (0x28124000)
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x2813d000)
        libcrypt.so.2 => /lib/libcrypt.so.2 (0x28218000)
        libutil.so.4 => /lib/libutil.so.4 (0x28231000)

root@abcjr-->/<--# ldd /rescue/ls
ldd: /rescue/ls: not a dynamic executable
