They are cross-tools, and are installed in /tools (and thus, they don't appear on the real CD). Also, gcc is just bare bones good enough only for the kernel. Maybe patching gcc in Chapter 6 like Debian does (so that gcc is 32-bit by default, but produces 64-bit code with -m64) is a better solution - but I have not tried to build this. BTW, I have no 64-bit PC. -- Alexander E. Patrakov -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
