RE-adjusting the Toolchain

2005-11-01 Thread Paul Lewis
Hi, I'm currently in Chapter 6, section 6.12, of the LFS book version 6.1. It's the section where we re-adjust the toolchain. The book says to adjust the gcc specs file to remove the reference to /tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2, and replace it with /{,usr/}lib/ld-linux.so.2. Now, I understand this to mea

ext3 fs errors, fixable?

2005-11-01 Thread Doug Ronne
If my disk wouldn't mount because of a bad superblock, and I booted in another filesystem to run e2fsck which just gave error after error eventually ending in a filesystem that had nothing but a lost+found directory full of numbered files, is there any way of salvaging anything off that partition?
