Hi all


This is my first lfs build, and it was going swimmingly until I hit this little wall.


Unfortunately I am very much a newbie, so I have absolutely no idea how to read these outputs (I'm just getting to grips with what's actually going on!)

So, to the point. "make mrproper" went without any problems, as did all sections prior to this.


Here are my actions and then the problem.


cd sources

tar -xf linux-3.2.6.tar.xz

cd linux-3.2.6

make mrproper

make headers_check


This gave the output of:

CHK include/linux/version.h

UPD include/linux/version.h

HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep

HOSTCC scripts/unifdef

INSTALL include/asm-generic (34 files)

Can't locate strict.pm <http://strict.pm> in @INC (@INC contains: /tools/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.2/x86_64-linux /tools/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.2 /tools/lib/perl5/5.14.2/x86_64-linux /tools/lib/perl5/5.14.2 .) at scripts/headers_install.pl <http://headers_install.pl> line 19.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at scripts/headers_install.pl <http://headers_install.pl> line 19.

make[2]: *** [/sources/linux-3.2.6/usr/include/asm-generic/.install] Error 2

make[1]: *** [asm-generic] Error 2

make: *** [headers_install] Error 2


Now Error 2, as I understand, is pretty generic, so at first I though it's possibly not a real problem, but then I saw that the compilation had aborted.

I removed the directory and re-extracted and started again, getting exactly the same messages.

I haven't deviated from the book as far as I'm aware and my host system matches the requirements.


Any ideas?


Thanks


Mike



Depending on the results of Yasser's instructions, you may have to go back a few steps and reinstall perl.

Another thing: are you meaning to build for 64-bit, or are you cross-compiling for 32-bit? If you haven't been paying attention to that, you may have to scrap your entire build as it currently stands and start over.
