Hello,
I am having trouble getting the creating the cross-compile tools. My host
system is a Intel centrino running Debian 4.0, and I am trying to run through
the book using i486 as the target as well (I am just trying to understand the
process right now). I am using version 1.0.0 of the book, and I am trying to
follow the instructions exactly as they are written in the book. $CLFS_HOST =
i486-cross-linux-gnu, $CLFS_TARGET = i486-cross-linux-gnu. I am having a
problem when I try to run the following command on page 64 of the book:
../gcc-4.1.1/configure --prefix=/cross-tools \
--host=${CLFS_HOST} --target=${CLFS_TARGET} --disable-multilib \
--with-local-prefix=/tools --disable-nls --disable-shared \
--disable-threads --enable-languages=c
I receive the following message:
loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i486-cross-linux-gnu
checking target system type... i486-cross-linux-gnu
checking build system type... i486-cross-linux-gnu

checking whether ln -s works... yes

checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot
create executables.
The config.log file reads:
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 1949 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
main(){return(0);}
So the problem appears to be caused by the inability to find ld-linux.so.2.
Also, as the listing show the ld in the /cross-tools/bin folder is being used
because my PATH variable is /cross-tools/bin:/bin:/usr/bin. I am sorry to
bother everybody with this question, but I haven't been able to find a
solution. I did try to remove the /cross-tools/bin folder from my path and it
did resolve the error, but then I got an error during the next step, so I am
not sure if that is the correct solution. I am not sure if I should be using
the cross-compiler ld when buidling the gcc and if so I am not sure how to get
it to work. Thank you in advance for any help that you may be able to provide.
Also, I really appreciate the time that everyone has taken to create this book.
Thanks,
Kevin
