Seds also needed for gzip and tar, and supposedly glibc-2.6 needs a /bin/echo symlink for its testsuite. I wouldn't know, it didn't get me any further, trying to run any program in /tools/bin still reports 'Aborted'.
So, it doesn't seem to be a question of an unmatched glibc, and the only substantial change is the new version of gcc. Note that the new cross-gcc, after patching, does seem to build a working kernel and modules, it's "only" glibc that seems not to like the new gcc. I suppose one possibility is to try hjl binutils - it's things like this which *really* piss me off about the toolchain. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce _______________________________________________ Clfs-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clfs-dev
