[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ uname -a

How come uname doesn't know this is an LFS box?

6.15.1. Installation of Coreutils

A known issue with the uname program from this package is that the -p switch always returns unknown. The following patch fixes this behavior for Intel architectures:

patch -Np1 -i ../coreutils-5.2.1-uname-2.patch

Why this doesn't seem to work on your machine is a good question...

Cheers,
Uli
