But, given that most LFS (and BLFS) developers think using anything other than x86 is unsupportable, CLFS is the only way to go for other architectures. And yes, pretending to cross-compile does work for native builds. There is a long tradition of using LFS on ppc, but the book doesn't directly support it. > The reason I mentioned that I was doing this on PowerPC was to put > all the variables on the table.
