ncurses5.6 make error

2008-07-01 Thread Michael Spitler
Hello, I am working with LFS Version SVN-20080604. Only deviation is that I chose to use kernel 2.6.25.8 instead. I am using Ubuntu 8.04 as my host system. Everything seems to have worked fine until I reached Ch. 5.13. When I run make on ncurses, it gives this error: make[1]: Entering directory

Good morning, The issue is with the prerequisites, LFS needs Gawk to build but Ubuntu comes with Mawk (as indicated in the error below). If you use apt to remove mawk and install gawk you should be able to proceed trouble free. Regards Phill Upson rsoares wrote: Hi, When I get the build

Hello, I think Ubuntu might be using mawk by default instead of gawk. Try 'sudo apt-get install gawk' on the host system and try rebuilding glibc. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above

Kernel panic... Unable to mount root fs

Hi all, hope someone can help me out, it's been five years since I last used LFS (or linux for that matter!) so I'm a bit rusty... I've gone through the LFS6.3 book. It all seems to go fine until I boot up the new system. These are the last three lines before it totally freezes: List of all

Kernel panic... Unable to mount root fs

2008-07-01 Thread Christian Gardner
Almost certainly it's because the necessary driver is not compiled into the kernel. The Ubuntu .config and kernel will probably not work for you because the drivers are modules and you need to have an initramfs to load them before mounting root. I don't recall the exact settings, but I think

Just the controller is what we need. For libata, this corresponds to CONFIG_ATA_PIIX. Even on 2.6.22, I think you'll want the libata SATA support. I've been using ata_piix on two Intel systems with linux-2.6.22 for a while and haven't seen any issues. I think that setting with the ones
