You should end up with gcc-4.1.2/ renamed to embryo-toolchain, and embryo-toolchain/binutils-2.17 with symbolic links from the binutils-2.17/ directory going to ../
The GCC directory becomes the top of the source tree, and everything else is a subdirectory. That page says "Unpack both the binutils-2.17 and gcc-core-4.1.2 source tarballs but do not change directory." before the first command. robert On Saturday October 6 2007 11:25:32 pm Harrison Neal wrote: > It seems that, if the commands near the top of the page of "5.2 Embryo > Toolchain" as of HLFS version SVN20070901 are entered as is into a > Virtual PC hosted by Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (I'm sharing a computer, > and it isn't mine) and running off the latest Live CD Image, > lfslivecd-x86-6.3-r2052.iso, it seems to result in the gcc-4.1.2 folder > itself and the binutils-2.17 folder itself within the embryo-toolchain > folder. > > Is this intended, or are the contents of the gcc-4.1.2 folder supposed > to be placed into the embryo-toolchain folder, and, thereafter the > binutils-2.17 folder itself be placed into the embryo-toolchain folder > (or did I just enter it wrong and/or am I misunderstanding the process)? > I'm going under the assumption that the contents of the gcc-4.1.2 folder > were supposed to be placed into the embryo-toolchain folder, since later > commands modify files within the contents of the gcc-4.1.2 folder > without changing the current directory (but, then again, the book states > that we should be familiar with most concepts from LFS, and does seem to > assume the user has already followed steps shown and explained in LFS > before and after following the instructions on any page).
