'mask' was the wrong word to use here. I am aware that the toolchain will use the full host path to /tools i.e., '/mnt/lfs/tools' (and so, --with-local-prefix=/tools also becomes important). All I really meant is that the system is configured such that it is expecting your logical system root to be equal to '$LFS' or '/mnt/lfs' and so will be explicitly searching there for the rest of the toolchain components. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
