Congratulations. I've been waiting to give this whole LFS thing a try -
perhaps now I shall.

[lfs-support] Problem following LFS Version 7.1 - 6.7 Linux-3.2.6 API Header

2012-07-04 Thread Toby Ferguson
I finished 6.6 Creating Essential Files and Symlinks. All seems good.

But when I get to chapter 6.7 I have no idea what to do - there's no
makefile around, and none under the / directory, so far as I can tell. It
seems to me that there're some instructions missing or that I've skipped,
but I can't find them.

The Errata for this version don't indicate a problem here, so I'm stuck.
Can you tell me what to do?

Ah - I thought I'd installed everything - so you're saying I have to do the
'unpack/cd/install/rm' cycle, but as the root user in the chroot'd
environment? OK - I can do that I guess.

Thanks.
