No it was from an LFS-6.5 image.

Sorry, I don't think I'm interested in checking for compatibility with a 
system published in June 2004 on hardware that that is even older.  We 
may have a non-compatibility in the host system requirements in that we 
need to raise the minimum level of packages, but I'm not going to put 
any time in it.  The main culprit is probably glibc.  5.0 used 2.3.2 and 
we are now at 2.11.1.

See if you can boot from a commercial distro and use that as the base host.
