I've managed to compile binutils, gcc and linux headers from chapter 5.  
I began glibc but got stuck trying to run the patch.  I tried running it 
anyway.  Got stopped at  'make check'  with fatal errors.

I've tried running the patch from different directories but always get 
the same result:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/mnt/lfs/sources$ patch -Np1 -i 
glibc-2.5-branch_update-3.patch
can't find file to patch at input line 16
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

File to patch:

One thing I'm not clear on is the displayed syntax:

patch -Np1 -i ../glibc-2.5-branch_update-3.patch

To me, this implies going down one level.  If that's the case, what is 
the pwd?
I've been placing my build dirs in $LFS/xxx-build.   The tools directory 
appears  to be populating correctly so I'm assuming my  build 
directories are OK where they are. 

Thanks,
Burt
