You are the second person to say this, however, most (including me) only receive a message during the patch's installation, but it installs okay. Could you give the *exact* error message you get, and the result of the process when you use the instructions in the book? I'm not a big fan of taking patches from a maintainer, changing it, then installing it into the BLFS repo. The reason being that we can't tell if the maintainer changes the patch and leaves the name the same which would make our patch obsolete without any way of even knowing it. Additionally, by retrieving it from the maintainer, it is likely that if there are other patches, it would be discovered easier than if we are using the BLFS repo. Thanks for any additional help or comments you may have, Chris. I searched the mail archives for the last time this issue came up, but I didn't get any good results. I'm not real good at using the LFS search tool. -- Randy -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
