I appreciate those concerns, and a concise explanation about what is happening should still be highlighted textually. My motives for the change are that it simplifies the command and it will work for all cases, so there would be no need to say 'use a different linker name if your platform requires it'. I always thought that was kind of an unfitting warning anyway for a book that claims to support only x86. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
