Hi,
I'm trying to follow the Lfs Book 7.4. It worked for a while, now I'm stucked.
Before I start all over, one question:
In several places in the Book I run into situations like

As in the first build of GCC it requires the GMP, MPFR and                MPC 
packages. Unpack the tarballs and move them into the                required 
directory names: 
tar -Jxf ../mpfr-3.1.2.tar.xz
mv -v mpfr-3.1.2 mpfr
tar -Jxf ../gmp-5.1.2.tar.xz
mv -v gmp-5.1.2 gmp
tar -zxf ../mpc-1.0.1.tar.gz
mv -v mpc-1.0.1 mpc 
Create a separate build directory again: 
mkdir -v ../gcc-build
cd ../gcc-build
The problem is that in my case, for instance, the mpfr dir already exists. So 
my question is: is the mpfr left as a result of the build process failure at 
some previous step?
If not, am I suppose to delete the mptr dir or should it be left as it is?
The same problem occurs with a number of xxx-build dirs.
Otherwise, despite the fact that, so far, I cannot build the LFS, the book is 
excellent.
