Hi Lewis, thanks for showing interests in doing multilib stuff. DJ's work you refered to was a big big help to setup the ML-branch you can find at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~thomas/multilib/index.html - i think it has been mentioned allready in this thread. Without thinking about much in detail, adding ML support to an existing non-ML system should not be more difficult than seting up a fresh one. I think you'll just have to redo the core utils to be ML enabled, than redo the other libs. There are several libs in the ML-bool which are built in 32bit mode too even they are not really required to run the (LFS) system. But when going on to more sofisticated packages it will turn out that they will need them. Thats the reason why those libraries are built in LFS book, its just to provide ML support for doing BLFS. The essence of ML is in binutils/gcc/glibc - this is where ML "lives". -- Thomas Btw, after being away for vacation, i just merged the latest changes to the ML-book, its now on SVN-20190721. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
