Hello,
Can someone explain what the directory structure is supposed
to look like in Chapter 5?
1.
Forgot to mention:
You might thank Philippe Delavalade and Tony Sauri, as they are trying to be
helpful with good correct information they have written to you.
In the beginning, we all have these doubts, some find their own way through and
this list has volunteers who are part of LFS/BLFS

here with no experience with Linux. I've also noticed several problems with
the manual, so clearly this is a work in progress. You, Tony, apparently
can't even
Ahh, ok, yes thank you, that is more what I am looking for. So you can have
the Binutils-xx AND Binutils-build in the same /mnt/lfs/sources directory. I
know everyone disagrees with me, but I still think that isn't clear given that
quote on page 35 recommending that Binutils be built outside

1) I don't think that is true. The manual contradicts itself. On the one
hand it tells you to put stuff in $LFS/tools, but then it specifically
recommends NOT putting things in there during the initial compilation
process. It also tells people to create an LFS
Hi,
You are one of the main guys, right? I think I am going to have to re-read
some things. I downloaded the 7.0 PDF before 7.1 came out and actually printed
it out (7.0) so I am kind of locked into 7.0 as I don't want to print out the
whole 7.1, but I am trying to check it as well.

Yes, thanks for clearing that up. The packages are (as far as I can tell) all
compressed with either a bz2 or gz extension, which means they are compressed.
They are also tar'd, but it is my understanding that tar isn't a compressed
format. So I think technically they have to be uncompressed

Please don't top post on the LFS lists.
I started reading 7.0, and I was doing OK until about Chapter 5. Until I

I am really pleased to see that you now understand the directory structure and
by now should be weel on the way with the Chapter 5 compiles.
To give you a little forwarning
