Hello Everyone,
Tonight, after having maxed the ram out of my computer (4GB
ddr-400, I received my ram from amazon this morning), I set out to install
Gentoo in order to build LFS in 64 bit with the clang/LLVM 3.0 compiler
system. I will try out Jason's scripts and will likely do 2

Fix this. Glibc does not like mawk. Use gawk.
Also, can you please stop top posting and trim your replies to the

You do realize that Gmail is not good for managing mailing lists?

Thanks, but No, thanks.
I imagine this was issued by accident. In which case, I'll just ignore it.
If not, I think you have a something to learn about the appropriateness of

That is, no one expects to get such a posting,
Thank You all for the support . :)

[SOLVED]
The error is in the book:
..
Required patch:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/blfs/svn/firefox-9.0.1-libpng-1.5-1.patch
..
The book installs libpng-1.5.5
If the patch is omitted the build succeeds.

Hi Firerat,
I did that in following way.
I went to the binutis-2.21 folder first (after unziping ) and then offered
the commands in the book. I think the commands in the book simply get out
of the binutils folder and create binutil-build under source directory..
Correct me If I am wrong.
On Tu
yes, you are right. Point to be noted that you have to untar the source
then run configure from
binutils-build to generate the makefiles. Also source directory and
binutils-build are in same directory from the below mentioned command
../binutils-x.y.z/configure \
--target=$LFS_TGT --prefix=/t
Let's have a small time out and think about this
make failed as it found no Makefile, this is created by configure.
Binutils is a little 'odd' in you build it outside of the source dir
in sources you should have the tarball, binutils-x.y.z/ and binutils-build
I suspect you have untared binu

That sounds like a kernel config problem. Read what lspci says about
your ethernet card and when you do make menuconfig compare it to the
help text for each of the ethernet option
yes, "du" is the command to check the disk usage.

Create new directory and untar the binutils source and try to build it as
suggested by Firerat.

Hi Firerat
Book says the required disk space should be 350 MB. But my binutils-build
is only 508K

Hi Sandip,
I followed the book.. During the compilation i didnt get any errors.. Then
during the installation I got the above warning and system
got out of the installation mode soon after the errors.
Do we have different options in compilation ?
On Tue, Jan 10, 2012 at 3:13 PM, sandip sitapara w
There is no error. Just messages that there is nothing to be installed. I
am not sure but testsuit shouldn't be install in system it is just to check
the correct installation and dependencies to run that software
correctly.Also you have to look the compilation options while building the
same.
