I would want to dig into the tests to see what is failing. They all look related and my first reaction is that there are hardware issues, but I haven't seen these particular errors before. > make[1]: *** [math/tests] Error 2 > make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/tst-getaddrinfo4.out] Error 1 > make[2]: [/sources/glibc-build/posix/annexc.out] Error 1 (ignored) > make[1]: *** [posix/tests] Error 2 > make[2]: [/sources/glibc-build/conform/run-conformtest.out] Error 1 > (ignored) > make: *** [check] Error 2 > root:/sources/glibc-build# > > What worries me the most is the last line of the make output (right before > I ran the grep line) which states that "check" was not "remade" because of > errors.

There is nothing in LFS that I know of that uses floating point, but there are definitely places in BLFS that do. I would like to know the nature of the failures before continuing. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
