This indicates to me that you made an error in Chapter 5. The error was probably in either gcc or glibc. When we prepare for a LFS release, we have automated scripts that extract the instructions from the book and build the entire system. Your work around is not necessary if all the instructions are followed properly. Your comment is that you "pretty much" followed the book. Either you made purposeful changes or missed an instruction. If you made *any* intentional deviations, please elaborate them. In either case, I wouldn't trust your system. I recommend starting over. Of course, it's your distro, so you make the rules for your system. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
