I first tried a LFS build on a Sun Sparc 20 back in 2002 and worked at it for nearly six months. I'm back with another RISC based build on a PowerPC embedded device and I am hoping for success. So, I am happy to see that LFS is still around and that the founder is still very involved. It warms my heart to see open source projects still exist outside of massive corporations and I think that LFS is one of the all time best Linux centric projects in the world.
So with all that being said in 2008, here I go again with this hardware : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 cpu : G2_LE clock : 396.000000MHz revision : 1.4 (pvr 8082 2014) bogomips : 65.53 timebase : 33000000 platform : Efika machine : EFIKA5K2 CHRP PowerPC System revision : 2B3 vendor : bplan In order to brush up on a few things I built GCC 4.2.3 for PPC on this machine as well as a fairly up to date toolpath thus : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gcc -v Using built-in specs. Target: powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu Configured with: ../gcc-4.2.3/configure --with-as=/home/dclarke/local/bin/as --with-ld=/home/dclarke/local/bin/ld --enable-threads=posix --disable-nls --prefix=/home/dclarke/local --with-local-prefix=/home/dclarke/local --enable-shared --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,fortran --with-gmp=/home/dclarke/local --with-mpfr=/home/dclarke/local --enable-bootstrap Thread model: posix gcc version 4.2.3 http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2008-03/msg01254.html So with coffee pot at hand I venture forth into a full LFS build. This will be fun :-) Dennis Clarke Blastwave.org -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
