The machine is the non-java LFS-7.4-rc1, i686. There it is LVM2.2.02.100
that I installed, previous was not anymore at the address in the book. I
did not try to investigate more, due to the other problems I have now
with java. and having to do a new build.
I can run the tests. up to a point. many passed many more skipped, many
fails, then an error. I have the log, but I am running again, to try a
LC_ALL=C log. Some parts take very long. I was will send it, when
finished. Complete log xz-compressed is over 52KB. I am producing an
isolated test log.
