Looks like a hardware failure or a connexion lost that may hang wget, not jhalfs itself.

It definitely wasn't a h/w issue or timeout. The first time I ran this it got "everything" and it ALWAYS stalled ONLY after successfully retrieving the larger files. Anything less than [what seemed to be] around 2Mb was fine, the script just carried straight on working to the next file... It was a bit weird and I guess - like I said it was a memory thing. I was running from within X in an xterm and had Firefox open etc. so maybe it was just getting bogged down.


2. Attempting to download tcl-8.4.13 fails (Is this because the book has
a "?download" at the end of url?????)
I will try to fix it ASAP. Thanks for the report.

No problem. Glad I found something "useful".

In jhalfs $BUILDDIR in using in the config file, that is mapped to $MOUNT_PT on the Makefile, an lastly it is mapped to $LFS or $HLFS.

But looks that there is few places where the mapping was forgotten :-/

That need be revised and simplified.

As above.

I suspect that before running jhalfs you has /home/lfs but not the lfs user and group.

Spot on. Good catch. I always keep /home as a separate partition so it does have /home/lfs and yes, the user/group were not defined.


Could we to do a better test?

The chown of $(MOUNT_PT)/tools is done at the same time that the lfs user and group creation. If the user isn't created and don't exist, the chown command do nothing.

Ahhhh that explains a lot.

Thanks for the great work you guys are doing on what is an excellent tool. With the optimisations and ability to build {C,H,L}FS and hopefully BLFS too this is just what the doctor ordered :-)
