Hi Brian,
This mail will help a lot of people getting stuck. A good thing!!
I also ran into problems in chapter 6, but I fear i have fooled around
too much, and my backup is worthless. So if I find the time next week I
go for a new try :-)
Problems I ran into in chapter 6:
* uClibc: make -C utils install: no rule to make target
* butterfly toolchain: the compiler can't make executables (the
compilertest in 6.11 was ok except the grep 'SEARCH.*/usr/lib'
dummy.log |sed 's|; |\n|g' returned nothing )
