Hi, I am using Trisquel, a Debian-based operating system, to setup a CCLFS. The following report might be a useful fix to a bug arising from accessing /dev/pts from a Chroot environment; or possibly, trigger useful comments. When installing Binutils based on Section 10.15 of the CLFS book, I wasn't able to check the proper operation of PTYs from ' expect -c "spawn ls" '. This, in spite of closely following the CLFS book's instructions. After some thought, I realized that the contents of the /dev/pts folder were not accessible from the Chroot environment. I was not able to find a fix from the CLFS mailbox nor through a few other web resources. After some thought, I solved the problem by applying the --rbind or -R option instead of '-o bind' in 'mount -v -o bind /dev $CLFS/dev ' suggested in Section 8.4 (Entering the Chroot Environment) of the book. Hopefully, this will serve as a useful error fix to others and/or induce useful comments.
