So, that problem is gone. > Unfortunately the target for which I need to build ppc binaries is running >a kernel version 2.4.21, which will not load and run a binary (hello world) >built using my clfs cross compiler. Yeah, this is the --enable-kernel=2.6.0 in the book. One reason for using that is that we moved to nptl instead of linux-threads. You cannot run any current clfs under a 2.4 kernel. As to what version of glibc can run under a 2.4 kernel, I've no idea. Sorry I didn't spot that showstopper earlier. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce _______________________________________________ Clfs-support mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/listinfo.cgi/clfs-support-cross-lfs.org
